Smartphone Microdrone Concept - Viva Vivo!
Too cool for back-to-school? Practical or not, I really like this smart phone microdrone concept. Just imagine if everyone in your classroom or office had one!
Technovelgy readers know how much I admire the insect-sized scarab robot drone from The Scarab, a genre classic from Astounding Stories in 1936. But its author, the amazing Raymond Z. Gallun also wrote about how to make mechanisms smaller and smaller - which the Vivo smartphone microdrone concept obviously needs!
You'd need an ultra-microrobot!
