May all beings everywhere, with whom we are inseparably interconnected, be fulfilled, awakened, and free. May there be peace in this world and throughout the entire universe, and may we all together complete the spiritual journey.
— Lama Surya Das
Why bother struggling to make mini robots, when the incredible, near-indestructible cockroach is already an amazing machine? Just slap a chip on the back and you’ve got yourself a remote-control bug, simple. Researchers from North Carolina State University have done just that with off-the-shelf components (no, not a Raspberry Pi, yet). The cockroach carries a remote micro-controller on its back that’s wired directly into the bug’s nervous system, to control it just like you would a toy car.
