MIT scientists are designing robotic insects that could one day swarm out of mechanical hives and perform pollination at a rapid pace — ensuring fruits and vegetables are grown at an unprecedented ...

New robotic insects with improved flight time and efficiency are set to enhance pollination and boost crop yields.

The idea of robots as pollen carriers is not entirely new. The robots reportedly developed earlier were not durable and ...

American scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new type of robotic insect that can ...

Unlike birds and insects, bats have flexible wings made of a thin membrane, allowing them to fly more efficiently. Inspired ...

The camera team also used tiny racing drones outfitted with macro lenses to capture insects in flight, and low-light cameras for filming in darkness. Furthermore, a motion-controlled camera system ...
