Researchers from Japan have developed a novel bio-hybrid drone by combining robotic elements with odor-sensing antennae from silkworm moths. Their innovation, which integrates the agility and ...

NAGANO: Researchers at Shinshu University and another institution have developed an odour-detecting drone that uses antennae ...

Three years ago Dr. Williams extracted an oil from the abdomens of silkworm moths, injected it into silkworm pupae. It stopped their normal development. The pupae never became adult moths ...

Bio-hybrid drone uses silkworm moth antennae to navigate using smell Shinshu University Funder Heisei Memorial Research Grant, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, JKA Foundation, Casio ...

Researchers from Shinshu University and Chiba University develop a novel bio-hybrid drone using odor-sensing antennae from silkworm moths. Incorporation of an electroantennography (EAG ...

The innovative design involves carefully extracting the antennae of silkworm moths and attaching them to electrodes on an electroantennography (EAG) sensor, a system used to measure electrical ...
