Researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore have developed a special machine to automatically turn cockroaches into cyborg roaches. This new machine can fit portable stimulation and ...

Researchers from Singapore and Japan have unveiled an algorithm that uses cyborg cockroaches to enhance disaster response and ...

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

Instead of using robots, researchers at Osaka University and Diponegoro University, Indonesia aim to harness the advantages of cyborg insects to aid in disaster relief and safety inspections under ...

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 ...

The patient is submerged in an ice bath as an anesthetic for its impending surgery. When sufficient numbness is achieved, University of Queensland student Lachlan Fitzgerald begins the procedure, ...

(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 ...

In a defense lab in Germany, a small startup is wiring live cockroaches with AI-guided backpacks and turning them into steerable scouts that can slip through cracks no drone or soldier could reach.

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 ...

The concept of soldier ants may not be far away from a U.S. Department of Defense proposal to field an army of remote-controlled insect-cyborg scouts. The Hybrid Insect Micro-Electro-Mechanical ...
