Researchers have come up with the production of bionic ants and butterflies on a 3D printer that looks as beautiful as their natural counterparts.

These bionic ants have not only the physical characteristics of the ants but also a design that keeps many behavioral features of the highly social insects. They are over 5 inches long and weigh just over 1 ounce each.

A small video camera is present in each artificial ant that provides a sense of sight for the robotic insects. These robotic insects can recharge their internal batteries by pacing their antennae against a charging station.

It has been suggested by US pediatricians that children's liquid medicines must be measured in metric units to reduce the instances of overdose, common with teaspoons and tablespoons.

Dr. Ian Paul, a pediatrician at Penn State Milton S. Hershey Children's Hospital, said that many children reach to emergency rooms after accidental medicine overdoses every year and reason is often badly labeled containers or unclear directions.

"Even though we know metric units are safer and more accurate, too many healthcare providers are still writing that prescription using spoon-based dosing. Some parents use household spoons to administer it, which can lead to dangerous mistakes", said Paul, who is also lead author of new metric dosing guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).
