1. Scientists have developed a tiny flying robot inspired by rhinoceros beetles, featuring foldable wings that can be used for search and rescue missions in confined spaces. 2. The robot mimics the passive wing deployment mechanism of beetles, allowing it to fold its wings when resting and deploy them for flight. 3. This innovation could enable the robot to enter collapsed buildings and switch to crawling mode for further exploration.
