Spy Flies
Robotic-looking dragonflies and other insects have been spotted at political events and protests in Washington and New York, hovering over antiwar rallies. While no government agency admitted to deploying the robots, the technology has been in the works for decades and some entities have admitted that they’re currently trying to perfect it. Because replicating the flying motions of a live insect tends to be inefficient, researchers may soon turn to flying cyborg insects like the beetles and roaches instead.

间谍苍蝇
昆虫态机器人曾经在华盛顿和纽约的政治事件比如游行抗议反战聚会中被发现过，虽然政府不承认，但这项技术已经存在了几十年，一些机构表示他们正在完善它。不过模拟飞行的昆虫在现实应用中是比较低效的，研究人员可能利用机械爬虫(比如瓢虫、蟑螂)来代替。
