Moving with the speed and agility of an insect, the tiny robot could someday assist in search-and-rescue missions.
MIT engineers reveal an insect-scale flying robot that can perform rapid, agile maneuvers - matching key aspects of insect flight - by using a neural-network controller distilled from a robust control ...
In the future, tiny flying robots could be deployed to aid in the search for survivors trapped beneath the rubble after a devastating earthquake. Like real insects, these robots could flit through ...
New insect-scale microrobots can fly more than 100 times longer than previous versions. The new bots, also significantly faster and more agile, could someday be used to pollinate fruits and vegetables ...
