Scientists develop Cyborg cockroach, could save people trapped under debrisThe neuro-controller micocircuit developed by researchers at the University of Connecticut in the US is part of a tiny electronic ‘backpack’ that can be attached to the insect with its wires connected to the insect’s antennae lobes.

A reason to start liking cockroaches: Cyborg insect could be a life-saving deviceThe cockroaches wear tiny robot backpacks that tell them which way to go.

Cyborg cockroach controlled using tiny microcircuitEngineers at the University of Connecticut have developed a tiny neuro-controller for directing the movements of insects, testing it successfully on a cockroach.

Cockroach Cyborgs Don a New Neuro-Controller BackpackUniversity of Connecticut (UConn) researchers are the latest to throw their hats into the cockroach cyborg ring. What they’ve created is a tiny, neuro-controller that offers precise biobot control. Over the last 10 years, scientists have been evolving technology to merge insect and machine. However, they've ran into difficulties shrinking the tech to such a...

Biorobotics Takes a Giant Stride with Cyborg CockroachesWearable microcircuit acts as a neuro-controller for steering insect movement.

A Cyborg Cockroach Could Someday Save Your LifeUniversity of Connecticut researchers have created a cyborg cockroach equipped with a novel microcircuit that allows more reliable and precise control of robotic insect motion.

New Microcircuit Can Control and Monitor Cockroach MovementResearchers at the University of Connecticut have developed a new microcircuit capable of controlling cockroaches.

Search-And-Rescue Cyborg Cockroaches Are Now A ThingResearchers out of the University of Connecticut took to the 2018 Conference on Cognitive Computational Neuroscience in Philadelphia to present new
