By investigating how grasshoppers glide, an engineering team at Princeton has developed a model that could enable multimodal locomotion for tiny robots.
This could give engineers new options in the quest to extend flight time for insect-sized robots: https://bit.ly/4pECNCw

In a new study, @princetonneuro.bsky.social scientists uncover one reason for the brain’s advantage over AI: it reuses the same cognitive “blocks” across many different tasks.
By combining and recombining these blocks, the brain can rapidly assemble new behaviors: https://bit.ly/481dpBe
