InsBot aims to enter the cockroach's den

Researchers from France, Belgium, and Switzerland have developed InsBot, a small robot that infiltrates a colony of cockroaches and lures them out of hiding.  By mimmicking cockroach movements and smell, InsBot makes friends with large groups of cockroaches and makes them feel safe in areas that allow exterminators to do their thing.  The same group plan to develop robots that will keep sheep from jumping off cliffs.  We weren't aware that suicidal sheep were a problem.
