Delfly Micro!

The university of Delft in the Netherlands has added a newer, and even smaller addition to their Delfly family of robots.

The DelFly Micro only weighs 3 grams and has a size of 10 cm from wing tip to wing tip. This makes it the smallest flying ornithopter carrying a camera in the world!

There is a podcast with more details up on the Robots podcast site

This amazingly light robot carries a camera, and can fly for up to three minutes under it's own power. It seems like only yesterday that Dragonfly spy robots were the fodder of conspiracy theorists, and now they are a reality.

Video after the jump.
