This robotic bee buzzes around like real ones. German automation company Festo has gained recognition in recent years due to their innovative Bionic Learning Network, a program that uses nature as inspiration to create robots that mimic the movement and capabilities of animals. Their latest invention, BionicBee, is the smallest flying object they've developed so far. It weighs just 1.2 oz (34 g) and buzzes around with a wingspan of 9.4 inches (24 cm). #gigadgets #robotic #bionic #engineering #au
