Scientists have developed a [tiny / tinny] camera that can be put on the back of a beetle. The camera can record where the bug [going / goes] . This will give the scientists a bug's-eye [view / watch] of the world. The researchers want to use the camera to explore [places / place] never seen before. Researcher Vikram Iyer [explanation / explained] why the camera could be useful. He said: "Insects can [reverse / traverse] rocky environments, which is really challenging for robots to [do / be] at this scale. So this system can also help us [in / out] by letting us see or collect samples from hard-to-navigate spaces." Mr Iyer is [excited / excitement] to see what the cameras record. He said: "This is the first time that we've had a first-person view from the back of a [Beatle / beetle] while it's walking around."

The [scientists / sciences] are from the University of Washington in the USA. They wanted to develop a camera light [plenty / enough] for bugs to wear. It weighs just 250 grams. Their wireless camera records images [to / at] up to five frames [per / pre] second. A researcher said: "We have created a low-power, low-weight, wireless camera system that can [rupture / capture] a first-person view of what's [happening / happen] from an actual live insect." He said one of the biggest [challenge / challenges] when making the camera was the battery. It had to be very small and very light, with enough power to [last / past] a few hours. The researchers stressed that no beetles were [hurt / harm] in their tests and that all the insects "lived for at [last / least] a year" after the experiments finished.
