Earthquakes. Scientists create cyborg cockroaches to save lives. These creatures, called "paraborgs", were developed to operate in disaster scenarios, particularly after earthquakes, where people can become buried under rubble. The researchers equipped the cockroaches with cameras and syringes, allowing them to access locations inaccessible to humans. The cyborg cockroaches can move through tight spaces and reach victims that would otherwise be impossible to reach. The tests conducted showed that drug delivery through these cockroaches had a success rate of 72%.
