Solar-powered Dragonfly

James Watt (I like his surname as it has something to do with power) has created a truly amazing tiny electronic insect robot that is powered by the sun instead of relying on batteries. The best part is, his project comes in the anatomy of a dragonfly that isn’t too far away from

its real world counterpart at first glance, and is capable of flapping its wings thanks to simple electronics and a pager motor. whether only that puppy will be able to master flight.
