Insect-sized robots can get to places larger ones can't, but their travel can be hampered by obstacles or their battery capacity. Enter the hopping robot, capable of traveling even across dynamically tilting surfaces, while using far less energy than a flying one. 🎥: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) / YT | Interesting Engineering

Engineers in the MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science have developed artificial muscles that enable insect-sized robots to continue flying even after taking damage. The design could allow tiny robots to perform jobs better in harsh conditions and environments.

Robots tend to be powered by batteries and plug sockets. But the RoBeetle is a little different. This insect-size microbot (defined as weighing less than 1 gram) runs on methanol, a type of alcohol commonly found in solvents and antifreeze. Liquid fuels like methanol hold more energy per unit volume than batteries, especially on a small scale. This means methanol-powered microbots don’t require an additional external power source, such as wires or electromagnetic fields. In a 2020 study, researc
