Micro Robot

(Gotten from Core77.com) The sequel to Monsieur, which was a handheld little robot from Epson, this model flies. It looks like a small helicopter or a large bloated dragonfly. The video shows it sitting in the palm of someone's hand. And then a Japanese model eyes it warily as it flutters near her (but the video doesn't really show it doing anything intelligent).

Epson Newsroom: "To top it off, Epson added an image sensor unit that can capture and transmit aerial images via a Bluetooth wireless connection to a monitor on land, and they also devised two LED lamps that can be controlled as a means of signaling."
