Robot Eats Flies to Generate Power

From Slashdot "Interesting little story over at MSNBC today about 'robots that can be sent into dangerous or inhospitable areas to carry our remote industrial or military monitoring of, say, temperature or toxic gas concentrations.' The neat part is it's powered by 'catching flies and digesting them in special fuel cells.'"

How long before they decide to eat something bigger than flies ? :P :O
