Stickybot Robotic Lizard
Posted on Mar 27, 08 06:38 PM PDT
The Stickybot robotic lizard takes the gecko as its inspiration, and the Pentagon has taken a very strong interest towards it. After all, the military arm of the government hope to have it serve as a spy, worming its way to the homes and buildings of potential rogue nations that threaten national security. This robot is able to climb glass surfaces at the rate of a meter per second thanks to nano-scale hairs on the bottomm of its toes. Hopefully this robot will be able to move naturally, and what happens when someone thinks that this is the real deal, only to discover that it is nothing but a voyeuristic robot all this while? Perhaps Pentagon would like to include some sort of self-destruct feature inside to prevent any reverse engineering.
