Scientists have developed an advanced swarm navigation algorithm for cyborg insects that prevents them from becoming stuck ...

Cyborg cockroaches guided by ultraviolet light and motion feedback navigate obstacles autonomously, showing how noninvasive control can coordinate biological movement with electronic sensing.

Envisioning armies of electronically controllable insects is probably nightmare fuel for most people. But scientists think they could help rescue workers scour challenging and hazardous terrain. An ...

have created a new type of insect cyborg that can navigate autonomously -- without wires, surgery, or stress-inducing electrical shocks. The system uses a small ultraviolet (UV) light helmet to steer ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University finally have a use for insect brain-jacking: use a swarm of cyborg cockroaches to map dangerous or uncertain areas like collapsed buildings. Could this ...

Instead of going to the time and trouble of designing and building tiny robots from scratch, some scientists are now turning existing insects into remote-control cyborgs. A new "assembly line" could ...

(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 ...

Cyborg insects are redefining the future of robotics and swarm navigation. By blending living organisms with advanced ...

Cyborg cockroaches that find earthquake survivors. A "robofly" that sniffs out gas leaks. Flying lightning bugs that pollinate farms in space. These aren't just buzzy ideas, they're becoming reality.
