Bug-sized robots have been given an ability to fly that could one day see a swarm used to pollinate plants or go be used for search and rescue missions in disaster zones.Basic versions have been demonstrated by researchers in the past at the USA’s Massachusetts Institute of Technology.They used soft actuators that operate their wings for drone operation They are effectively artificial muscles that rapidly flap the robot’s wings.But the tiny robots can’t carry the necessary power electronics that would allow them fly on their own.Now, the researchers have pioneered a fabrication technique that enables them to build actuators that operate with 75 percent lower voltage while carrying 80 percent more payload. It produces artificial muscles with fewer defects, which dramatically extends the lifespan of the components and increases the robot’s performance and payload. The rectangular microrobot, weighs less than one-fourth of a US penny and has four sets of wings each driven by a soft actuator. Actuators are made from layers of elastomer that are sandwiched between two very thin electrodes and then rolled into a squishy cylinder. When voltage is applied, the electrodes squeeze the elastomer, and that mechanical strain is used to flap the wing.The more surface area the actuator has, the less voltage is required. For the first time, the researchers were able to create an actuator with 20 layers, each of which is 10 micrometers in thickness which about the diameter of a red blood cell.
OPS: New fabrication technique has enabled the production of high-endurance bug-sized flying microrobots.The artificial muscles vastly improve the robot’s payload and allow it to achieve best-in-class hovering performance.

NSO became the company whose software can spy on the world
Yahya Assiri a Saudi Arabian human rights activist and former member of the Royal Saudi Air Force who was targeted by NSO spyware.
The Pegasus project has raised new concerns about the Israeli firm, which is a world leader in the niche surveillance market. In 2019, when NSO Group was facing intense scrutiny, new investors in the Israeli surveillance company were on a PR offensive to reassure human rights groups.
In an exchange of public letters in 2019, they told Amnesty International and other activists that they would do “whatever is necessary” to ensure NSO’s weapons-grade software would only be used to fight crime and terrorism. But the claim, it now appears, was hollow.
