MIT s self assembling robots bring us one step closer to real world Transformers VentureBeat

The future of robots is modular, self-assembling, and kind of scary.

Researchers at MIT are working on M-Blocks, tiny, cube-shaped robots that seem only steps away from recreating scenes from Terminator 2 or Transformers. 

The robots, which have no external moving parts, can propel themselves in any direction and can form themselves into stacks to create structures.
