Bomb-sniffing cyborg locusts created to save the day!

Sniffing out explosives, hazards and diseases with cyborg locusts, perhaps, saving the day! Weilun Li never imagined what he’d be doing as a third-year PhD student in electrical engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. “It’s like a Marvel movie,” said Li. “To have a superhero." It’s not Spiderman, Antman or The Wasp - because those characters are for the comics. Rather, Li is working on very real cyborg locusts! “It’s actually more simple and more realistic than I thought." That’s because locusts seem to have superpowers with their remarkable sensing capabilities, making locusts an engineering marvel. They possess superior neural responses to follow a specific odor, such as the bomb-sniffing locusts engineered at Washington University. The National Science Foundation awarded the research group $4.3 million to help them develop the cyborg locusts and study odor-guided navigation. “The goal for the application of the electronic nose is to noninvasively sense chemicals for different applications: biomedicine, Homeland Security, environmental monitoring. #cyborglocusts #bomb-sniffinglocusts #locusts #explosives #superheroes
