It’s an smart mosquito spy leech for urban areas, already in production, funded by the US Government. It can be controlled by remote and it is assembled with a camera and a microphone. It can land on you, and it may have the potential to take a DNA sample or it can produce RFID tracking nanotechnology into your skin.
It can fly out of an open window, or it can be stuck to your clothing until you take
it in your home. Given their propensity to request macro-sized drones for surveillance, one is left with little doubt that police and military may look into these gadgets next.
The leech technology does exist, though not at the level implied by the artist’s rendering of a DNA-extracting mosquito.
It is clear that research is continuing at the university level and by the military, for different reasons. Robotic insects flying recon missions could easily exist today. The spy insects will become the rendering artists technology in future.
