  1. Cool robot! Could this be used in colonoscopy? I have to think that it might be a little bit better than the tools that they use right now. Also, could it be use for running cables through soil. For example, you guide one of these robots under the earth the way that you wanted to go when it comes out at the destination you attach the cable to it and then pull the cable back through the hole and Bob’s your uncle! And of course, this might be useful in reaching trapped miners and bringing air and water to them. This might also be useful in creating concrete supports underground. You have the robot burrow in to where you want it to be and then you pump liquid concrete into it so that it solidifies into a loadbearing structure. Might also be useful for running cables through the walls of a building. You could guide the robot around obstacles to where you wanted to go perhaps with the cable already in the center of the robot. Might also be useful in inspecting and perhaps even cleaning out air ducks in homes and businesses. Could also be used for the inspection of any type of piping, sewage pipes, oil pipes, natural gas pipes, etc. I also almost forgot to mention that the inflatable muscles might be useful in creating pressure suits for astronauts that are easier for them to move around in because an inflatable muscle is helping them to bend the joint.
