The pangolin's ability to curl up their scale-covered bodies in a flash was the inspiration behind the robots, designed by the Physical Intelligence Department at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart. Pangolins are the only species of mammal completely covered with hard scales made of keratin. The scales overlap and are directly connected to the underlying soft skin layer, allowing the animals to curl up into a ball in case of danger.
