Robotic Insects
Robotic insects are small, engineered devices designed to mimic the behavior and functions of real insects. They often use advanced technologies such as sensors, motors, and artificial intelligence to navigate their environment, gather data, or perform specific tasks. These robots can be used in various fields, including agriculture, search and rescue, and environmental monitoring.
Researchers are inspired by the natural abilities of insects like bees and ants to create efficient and adaptable machines. Robotic insects can help pollinate crops, monitor ecosystems, or even assist in disaster recovery efforts. Their small size and agility make them suitable for tasks that larger robots cannot perform.
