A chameleon robot developed by a team at Wuhan University in China led by Guoping Wang quickly changes color to blend in with different backgrounds. The robot uses plasmonic panels that react to light differently when an electric field is applied. The panels respond to data from light sensors on the robot that detect the background color.
