(A) A locomotion tracking system for cyborg insects, which uses a camera to track the insect's position, transmitting the positional data to the host for recording; (B) a host that acquires and ...

Insects exhibit remarkable locomotor versatility underpinned by highly efficient neural control systems. Their ability to navigate complex terrains relies on the seamless integration of sensory inputs ...

Researchers have combined research with real and robotic insects to better understand how they sense forces in their limbs while walking, providing new insights into the biomechanics and neural ...

Insect-scale legged robots have become increasingly capable in recent years but are still severely limited in terms of onboard resources for computation and power. On the other hand, simple models for ...

Tiny drones could one day crawl through collapsed buildings to help find survivors after earthquakes. These micro-robots, ...
