A team of scientists from the laboratory of Beihang University in Beijing has created a unique bionic robot measuring only 2 centimeters in size and weighing less than 2 grams. It has high maneuverability and is faster than cockroaches. The new micro-robot has been named BHMbot. It is able to overcome obstacles and move backwards. During testing, the development demonstrated the ability to penetrate narrow spaces and collect data using built-in sensors. The robot is able to detect SOS signals from a Bluetooth speaker buried in building blocks and transmit them to a computer, as well as pick up hard-to-reach signals. In the future, the BHMbot will be able to take pictures of the inside of aircraft engines thanks to millimeter-scale micro cameras. According to the authors of the project, such robots can be useful in search and rescue operations and inspection of complex structures
