Miniature “Insect” Robots for the Military!

Miniature \

Lol… BAE Systems is in development of “insect” robots to help soldiers fight in wars. While this does remind me of many cool sci-fi movies, I just can’t believe all my hard earned money will go to taxes then to this?!?

I am totally against war and even if internet was invented from wars, this isn’t the direction I expected. Well, at the least, it can help save some lives of soldiers who go to “future” wars.

The Micro Autonomous Systems and Technology (MAST) Collaborative Technology Alliance will research and develop advanced robotic equipment for use in urban environments and complex terrain, such as mountains and caves. The alliance will create an autonomous, multifunctional collection of miniature intelligence-gathering robots that can operate in places too inaccessible or dangerous for humans.

I too am against wars but, once there is one, gadgets like these save, hopefully the “good” guys who have the money and technology to get these so that the “bad” guys who do not have either, can be taken care of.
