A Swarm of Nano Quadrotors

At GRASP laboratory, in The University of Pennsylvania, a robot was created to be able to swing through obstacles, work as a group and attach themselves to any surface, angular or not.
These robots were called Quadrotors. The reason they were called Quadrotors was because they have four blades on top of them that allow them to fly.
They weigh very little and are only a few inches across. This enables them perform stunning acrobatic movements.
The Quadrotors are able to do double and triple flips in the air, arrange and rearrange themselves in perfectly symmetrical patterns and move through obstacles.
