Cornell University researchers have created the smallest walking robot yet.

Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently.

Controlled by magnets making a pinching motion, the robots can inch-worm forward on a solid surface.

They can also "swim" through fluids using the same motion.
