ELECTRONIC SPY FLY - SMALL MACHINE FLY that can literally fly and look like a bug, yet lets the controller know what is happening.As U.S. Military pouring considerable amount of money into MAV (micro air vehicle) projects, it's likely that these robotic bugs will be used as spy flies. DARPA envisions this can be used by soldiers in their reconnaissance missions as they can be remotely controlled from the ground. This spy flies would not only relay images of troop movements, guidance to enemy targets, but it could also be used to detect weapons of mass destruction may it be biological, chemical or nuclear.
In the recent development, scientists from Harvard successfully invented a robotic fly which can be used in reconnaissance missions, search missions, and in many other military intelligence gathering activities . The researchers, headed by Professor Robert Wood, took seven years to complete the development with the backing of US Military.
