  • American scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new type of robotic insect that can fly 100 times longer than previous designs. These robots are intended to aid in the mechanical pollination of fruits and vegetables.

The article from MSN discusses MIT's development of robotic insects, specifically focusing on their potential to revolutionize crop pollination. These tiny robots, inspired by the natural flight of insects like bees, are designed to assist or even replace the diminishing population of natural pollinators due to various environmental factors. The robots are engineered to mimic the wing-flapping motion of insects, allowing them to hover and navigate through complex environments like crop fields. This technology aims to address the global pollination crisis by providing an artificial means to ensure the pollination of crops, which is vital for food production. The project not only showcases advancements in robotics and biomimicry but also highlights the intersection of technology with agriculture, potentially offering a sustainable solution to one of the critical challenges facing modern farming.
