Scientists from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore have developed a miniature underwater suit for cyborg cockroaches.

The suit allows the insects to stay submerged for up to three hours.

3D-printed, the suit protects the cockroach's breathing holes from water.

Oxygen is generated from a reaction between hydrogen peroxide and manganese dioxide.

In tests, cockroaches moved at a depth of 50 cm and survived.

The technology is intended for disaster zones and future Mars exploration.
