Solar-powered dragonfly throws ball back in WowWee’s court

Make no mistake, our hearts were fluttering when we finally witnessed WowWee’s FlyTech Dragonfly buzzing about, but there’s just something about this creature that really wins us over. Designed and constructed by James G. Watt, this robotic insect reportedly includes a number of solar cells which provide enough power in sunlight to make the critter’s wings flap. Granted, we aren’t told whether or not it’s mighty enough to deliver loves notes in math class, but we’re digging the concept, regardless.
