TO GO WITH 'Science-Japan-technology'
Japan's Tokyo University researcher Tsuyoshi Sekitani displays an elastic sheet containing carbon nano tubes which conduct electricity (black part) in the silicon rubber (white base) at his laboratory at the University of Tokyo on August 11, 2008. Japanese researchers say they have developed a rubber that is able to conduct electricity well, paving the way for robots with stretchable "e-skin" that can feel heat and pressure like humans. The material is the first in the world to solve the problems faced by metals -- which are conductive but do not stretch -- and rubber, which hardly transmits electricity, according to the team at the University of Tokyo.
