Video: AeroVironment's Nano Hummingbird Passes Flight Test

The "ornithopter" can fly up to 11 mph. This spybot is being developed for the military.


(PhysOrg.com) -- A prototype robot spy "ornithopter," the Nano-Hummingbird, has successfully completed flight trials in California. Developed by the company AeroVironment Inc., the miniature spybot looks like a hummingbird complete with flapping wings, and is only slightly larger and heavier than most hummingbirds, but smaller than the largest species.
