Full Description
Edited by the world leader in insect cyborg concepts, this reference provides a unified vision of miniature electronically controlled biological systems.
The knowledge so gained will help researchers in microsystems technology to develop and improve engineering approaches for low-energy propulsion, locomotion and agility, for example, based on concepts found in nature.
Since this is an interdisciplinary topic, the book is highly relevant for applications in materials science, electrical and mechanical engineering, medicine, and biology, while some of the various techniques developed in the context of cyborgs can be applied to drug delivery, miniature microsystem development and energy harvesting devices.
