The micro-robot incorporates improvements of previous devices of this kind that position it as a prime candidate for military spy missions, water pollution monitoring, and other applications. The robot can walk on water because of its highly water repellent legs, says the team. The scientists describe progress on a new robot, with a body about the size of quarter; 10 water-repellent, wire legs; and two movable, oar-like legs - propelled by two miniature motors. It is one of the useful innovation in this field.
