chromozomech
Chromozomech is a term used in speculative fiction and theoretical discussions to describe a class of biohybrid systems that seek to fuse chromosome-inspired information encoding with mechanical actuation to create adaptive devices. In this concept, hardware behavior is shaped by genetic-like data structures, enabling modular reconfiguration and potential self-repair through recombination of components.
The term blends ideas from genetics and machinery. A chromozomech system generally envisions a genotype that
Implementation approaches are primarily theoretical or in fiction; potential demonstrations appear in soft robotics, programmable matter,
