Nematodes are fun critters, some people are investigating their use cleaning up irradiated land.

I can just imagine being trapped in a collapsed building when suddenly a tentacle snakes out of the wall singing Baby Got Back ;)

I still prefer a huge Gundam that can just lift the debris and get the people out imediately.
Hah worm, taste my railgun! Why a railgun for a SAR robot you ask? Hey, you want me to save these people or what?!

I'd crawl under a building myself just to have a nematode robot sing that[/i...

That's pretty ingenious. Hopefully they can plaster it with happy smiley faces and neon glow paint so people don't freak out when they first see them.
So it'll be part clown, part robot worm.

I don't think you're helping at ALL.

Wait wait wait, I can fix this! Give it GIANT EXTENDABLE LEGS and huge pincers that can cut through things in its way, and a big arching tail that comes up over its back to inject them with pain killers and life-saving medicine!

Imagine being trapped under a building, slowly suffocating... You hear digging nearby, and think that you're being saved! Then, suddenly, 2 METER CENTIPEDE OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE

Get this man a contract and his own office! Oh, don't worry about transportation, sir! We've got a very special bus coming for you, with big burly white clad men to assist you.

Is it controllable in any way? What happens if it flips over? How exactly does it distribute water? Does it have a speaker so that the controller can speak to people?

nature kicks our butts in design

imagine if we had vehicles that used a fly's wing structure... it'd be insane
