Shapeshifting robots using a new material could be on horizon

A new material being researched could make shape-shifting robots real, but let's hope they aren't as violent as the Transformers from the movies.
Researchers have developed a flexible material that can stretch when heated and will allow robots to change shapes. The material, which can also be rigid, is a mix of elastomer foam with a soft metal alloy.
With the material, robots could become more versatile. Most robots are rigid, much like human skeletons, but by morphing into new shapes, they cou
