MEMS microbots harness insect “know-how”

Microbots based on MEMS have long been sought to collect environmental samples, to search for survivors in collapsed buildings and for other reconnaissance style missions that are ill-suited for people. Although decades in the making, one major "hang-up" for fully autonomous operation of such microbots remains – a locomotion source. The tiny mechanisms and electrical circuitry are relatively easy to cast, but currently there are no reliable locomotion sources on such a small scale.
