HYDROGEL THAT CAN TURN US INTO CYBORGS

Researchers  at  the    Massachusetts    Institute  of  Technology  (MIT)  ,have  developed   a  new  form of  hydrogel -  a  water - based  polymer  that  can  look  and  feel  like  muscles   and  tendons.Such  a  gel  could  contain   tiny  electronics    ,that  can  monitor    our  insides  ,  deliver  medicine  or  provide  needed  electrical  stimulus .
The  hydrogel   is  flexible  , so  it  can  bend  and twist     without   breaking  or  tearing  and  human   body  is  also  made  of  similar   materials  so  there is  a  little  chance  that  our  body  will  reject  it  as  a   foreign   object.
Though  , it  has  not   yet  got  the  approval   from  US   Food  and  Drug   Administration .But  when  it  got  the  approval  , this  new  hydrogel    may  start  a  new  class  of  medical   devices.
