>A University of Colorado Boulder researcher received a grant to build something straight out of a spy movie.
The United States Air Force Research Laboratory awarded CU assistant professor Kaushik Jayaram and collaborator, Laura Blumenschein from Purdue University, a $1.4 million grant to design insect-sized robots.
While they may be small in size, the robots would be assigned a massive task: inspecting areas in tight spaces, such as a jet engine, for anything that needs to be repaired, without the need for disassembly or destruction to view the interior components, and at a fraction of the time and cost.
