Biomimetic technology gives drones new abilities. Small-sized drones that can flap their wings are the new tools for drone technology. Flapping-wing drones can land softly in the hand.  And they are less vulnerable than propellers. Flapping-wing drones can look like birds or insects. The insect-looking drone can slip into the house and then transmit discussions to its mothership. 

Those biomimetic drone systems can be the ultimate tools for surveillance and other types of missions. They can investigate how insects really live. And those systems can also observe people who are suspected of illegal activities. Small-sized drones can operate in houses, and they can search for unauthorized users. 

Or they can search for thermal leaks and possible fire. There is a possibility that the insect-shaped drone looks like a brooch. And then that brooch is simply left on the table. That tool can operate under its controller's command and make records from the space. The small robot insect can also use stun or lethal injections to target people. And when we talk about things like flapping-wing robots, there can be many types and many forms of those systems. 

The robot can look like a caramel box, and it can find any target in that building using artificial intelligence. Those systems are more dangerous than we can even imagine. They can play garbage and destroy the privacy at any point in the world. 

And that gives them the ultimate ability to perform different types of operations in certain areas. The problem with the small-sized drones is their limited operational range. The answer to that problem can be the drone, which has wing geometry and wing adjustments that mimic albatrosses. 

That bird is known for its ultimate ability to fly for even years without the need to land. And that ability is possible to transfer to a flapping-wing drone. Artificial feathers can adjust air flows in similar ways to how feathers work for real birds. The wing and surface act like real albatross feathers and wing geometry. The flapping-wing drone can have many types of missions. The wing geometry and body shape can mimic other birds like hawks. 

That thing gives those drones quite a fast top speed. When we think about the flapping-wing drones, those systems can also use things like fuel cells and special solar panels as a power source. In albatross-shaped drones, the system can load its batteries from airflow, and that increases its flight time. 

Those solar panels can mimic feathers. Or those drones can drink some hydrocarbon like alcohol to give fuel for their fuel cells. That system allows them to operate anywhere, anytime. But things like radioisotope batteries can give those systems virtually unlimited operational time and range. But if that system is in the wrong hands, it causes security problems, because those nuclear batteries involve dangerous radioactive material.
