Well, that is amazing engineering and micro-technology...but again, I fear what it will be used for. There are good uses of such micro-technology [medicine, rescue and scientific exploration in confined spaces, for examples] - and while they are being pursued as well, the military and intelligence use seems to be predominant. I'd like to see the military and intelligence use outlawed for any offensive actions or spying except as an absolute last measure in defense. I'm sure that won't happen. It seems humanity is doomed by its own technology - first to totalitarianism and then to extermination....unless we undergo a massive and 180 degree paradigm shift.
