Mini robot capable of surviving the apocalypse Swiss researchers have developed a
mini-robot DEAnsect that can survive the
devastating effects of the elements and shock loads.
Their creation
DEAnsect is an elastic robot that moves on three limbs at the expense of contractions of artificial muscles. At the same time, with a rather
strong blow with a fly swatter, it does not get significant damage and can further perform the task at hand.
The speed of its movement is
3 cm/sec. And the extreme version of the robot has its own battery, a small microcontroller and even photodiode eyes.
