Cyborg insects can possibly be the first to check and monitor hazardous places instead of man. Doing so, dangerous accidents can be prevented and at the same time, people will easily know the status of the area. These roboinsects will be able to check if there are trapped victims or potential explosion.

Roboexperts are finding ways on how to make sure that they will create the best roboinsect for the job. They have to make sure that everything is set before they launch these insects.

The research was conducted at the University Of Michigan College Of Engineering led by Professor Khalil Najafi and Erkan Aktakka. Both of them are trying to find ways on how to harvest energy from the insects to utilize them more. That way, these robotic insects can last longer and will not be trapped in hazardous places in case they run out of battery.

The main idea of the team is to collect the cyborg’s biological energy from either its body heat or movement. These tiny insects were designed to convert kinetic movement to electricity to prolong their battery life. That way, they can use the power in using applications like camera, gas sensor, or microphone in checking hazardous areas.

Cyborg Insects are just like Robotic Spiders created a month ago to check the status of chemical accidents. These small robotics are created to reduce the risk of accidents and deaths caused by experiments and other hazardous causes. Because scientists and researchers all over the world want to provide a safer and better place for everyone, they are continuously discovering and trying things that may harm not only people but the environment. Therefore, having these creepy little crawlers is indeed a great help in the world of science and technology.

The number of people affected on chemical accidents and other hazardous causes are continuously increasing. These cases could have been prevented if proper assessments have been done. And because of that, scientists have become more aware on what to do. Definitely, more of these cyborgs and robotic creatures will be created for almost the same purposes in the near future.

So are you ready for the next robocreature?
