Combining millions of years of evolution with tech wizardry: The
cyborg cockroach
...
...
The cyborg insects already have some jobs lined up. They can inspect
post-disaster sites that remain too dangerous for humans and can be
used to identify rescue workers in hostile conditions. Of course, they
can also be used to explore environments too small for humans, such as
pipes or collapsed buildings.

More ambitious goals aim to harness their ability to work in
low-oxygen environments, facilitating their use in deep-sea or space
exploration.
