iRobot has just prototyped this squashy blob of a bot that can squeeze through small holes. Which is pretty handy for killing humans and spying. They call it Chembot, for chemical robot. Now they’ve released a video of Chembot in action.

This video explains the bot, and shows how it moved about a year ago. The newer prototypes have sensors and better range of motion as well as more creepiness.
