Chinese scientists have developed a prototype of a drone that can fly and swim.

China has developed a prototype quadcopter that can not only fly but also submerge, making it suitable for a wide variety of missions.

As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported by Xinhua.

The weight of the quadcopter is 1.63 kg. It can stay in the air for six minutes or swim underwater for about 40 minutes.

It was noted that the new technology could be used in resource exploration, search and rescue operations and engineering inspections.

The TJ-Flying Fish quadcopter was developed by scientists from Tongji University and Shanghai Intelligent Autonomous Systems Research Institute at Xiangyang University, China.

Canadian startup LoopX.ai has reportedly developed a GoosEx robot that will deliver food to students on the University of Waterloo campus.
