Mini spy planes could mimic insects, birds

  • 12 years ago
http://www.nma.tv/ The US is developing cybernetic insects that could act as miniature drones. In addition to the military and spy agencies, these "cybugs" could be used by police and rescue workers. Researchers are looking to integrate circuitry with an insect's neurons to control the insect remotely. A power supply and other gear could be fused to the insect's body. The technology could eventually be useful in other areas, such as medicine. But it could also be used for nefarious purposes, such as to spy on innocent people.
