Researchers Developing Cyborg Insects that Draw Energy From Their Own WingsResearchers at the University of Michigan are currently working on a line of cyborg insects that would use the energy generated from their own wing motion to power sensors installed in tiny insect backpacks. The researchers see the insects being used in future first responder situations where they would investigate hazardous environments that could potentially be dangerous for humans to enter into. These little flying insecto-robots could be the first ones to scope out future nuclear disasters, areas where chemical warfare has been deployed, or even to survey land masses after natural disasters like volcanic eruptions or tsunamis....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/researchers-developing-cyborg-insects-that-draw-energy-from-their-own-wings/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
