These Insect-Sized Flying Robots Might be on a Mission!

Robotics is on its way to enhancing the productivity of global industries. Robots are now used to upscale the production of various products and services. After conquering almost all businesses and industries on a global basis, scientists are now on their attempt to build micro insect-like robots that can be used in life and death situations, such as finding people in collapsed buildings. Recently, researchers from the University of Bristol created a new insect-sized flying robot with flapping wings. The aim was to pave the way for smaller, lighter, and more effective micro flying robots for environmental monitoring, search and rescue, and deployment in a hazardous environment.
