This is interesting news. I am now imagining owning a robot fitted with such skin. It would take away the boredom of staring at a fixed-color robot.

Hmmm. What stimuli are we talking about?

Anyway, this invention is a truly amazing one.
I wonder whether the MIT scientists were propelled by a specific practical concern.
