There have been several flying robots in the news lately. A Marine Corps News story describes their Wasp Micro Air Vehicle (MAV), a hand-launched robot plane with Kevlar wings and side-looking cameras. Another MAV being designed by Honeywell for DARPA is described in a News.com article. And, last, is an autonomous helicopter being developed at New Mexico State University's Rio-Robo Lab, described in an Albuquerque Tribune article and an earlier NMSU press release.
