‘Cyborg’ beetles could revolutionise urban search and rescue

Geordie Torr
July 15, 2025

Researchers at the University of Queensland’s have created miniature microchip backpacks that can be used to remotely guide darkling beetles (Zophobas morio) via video game controllers. According to the researchers, the backpack-equipped beetles could one day be used to help search and rescue crews locate survivors within hours instead of days following disasters such as…
