Necrobotics utilizes the spider's organic hydraulic system and their compact legs to create an efficient and simple gripper system. The necrobotic spider gripper is capable of lifting small and light objects, thereby serving as an alternative to complex and costly small mechanical grippers.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Necrobotics: Dead Spiders Reincarnated as Robot Grippers - IEEE Spectrum |url=https://spectrum.ieee.org/robot-bugs |access-date=2023-10-19 |website=
