MIT Unveils New Robot Insect, Paving the Way Toward the Rise of Robotic Pollinators - The Debrief
Move over bees, MIT researchers have developed a robot insect designed for artificial pollination, laying the groundwork for entirely indoor farms of the future.
The robot’s lifelike flapping wings imitate nature, enabling the tiny aerial robot to weigh under a gram. The agile and resilient new model represents a significant advancement in small-scale robotics.
The envisioned indoor farm would grow fruits and vegetables inside a multilevel warehouse, maximizing yield per acre while minimizing en...
