Some interesting applications of robotics technology......


"Jerusalem, Israel (AHN) - Israel is using nanotechnology in a bid to create a robot, almost of a size of a hornet (a kind of wasp), which would have the ability to chase, photograph and kill its targets."

"A military reconnaissance robot being developed at a British lab can keep moving even if it gets damaged on the battlefield. When any of the snake-like robot's "muscle" segments are damaged, clever software "evolves" a different way for it to wriggle across any terrain."

"It's one small step for man, one limping step for robot-kind. Scientists have created a four-legged resilient robot that can assess damage to its body and come up with its own recovery plan."
