Robot Reproduction

As the science develops rapidly, robots are no longer a novel thing to people. However, have you ever heard of that robots can have children? This actually happens in our world. According to Daily Mail, scientists in Amsterdam have invented a new technology which can enable robots to reproduce.

When scientists made two robots meet, the robots could communicate with each other and choose suitable partners. When robots decide to mate, they can use Wifi to send their genomes. In this way, new genomes will be generated and sent to 3D printer, which then prints the components of the new robot. After the components are assembled, the baby robot comes to this world.

Scientists have finished the test of whole life period. When parent robots reproduce, their features are combined randomly. After the child robot was born, it needs to experience the process of learning. The child robot will then grow up and continue to reproduce the new generation. 

Such technology is significant, as it can be used to help human to explore Mars and other dangerous, unknown environments.
