Japanese Researchers Develop Robotic hummingbird Mission To Rescue and Reconnaissance

robohummingbird-07-02-09 

The development of the robot is able to take a lot of our attention. It's great robot concepts are now created because the point is to help people, easing the job or do a job that can hardly be done by humans.

Not unimaginable that at times of natural disasters such as the earthquake in Padang some time ago that has claimed many lives in which many of the victims could have saved a life lost in vain because it is difficult to know its existence under the pile of rubble that was difficult to track whether there are victims survive or not.

Of course this might be a tough task will be easier if we had a small surveillance robot that can slip in the cracks building.

In Japan, robots are now being developed in the form of a hummingbird which is when you see the size of this bird is very small and weighs less than 1 ounce only. Hummingbird is known to be very small and flexible so it can be rotating in circles, flying to and fro quickly. Some researchers at Chiba University near Tokyo is currently carrying out experiments to make the robot bird in which the robot will be equipped with infrared sensors and cameras.

Approximately nearly 2 million USD, or at least 20 billion dollars have been spent to continue to develop this robot, estimated in the year 2011, robots will be able to fly and can reach dangerous places for a rescue mission to the building or to use as a bird tracker. Hmmm, hopefully this bird robot project come to fruition soon, at least will be very useful for human life course.
