Weighing less than 1 ounce with a mere 1/4 cubic inch in total volume doesn’t stop these micro-bots from tearing up a obstacle-laden desktop. Throw anything at it: loose change, a pice of fuzz – the Sandia can handle it all with it’s tracked drive system.

Bravo Justin Quinnell for mounting a camera in the back of your throat. Just make sure to brush your teeth next time.
