Helicopters already resemble dragonflies as is, but the Igarashi Single-Person helicopter is even more like an insect, both in profile and from the front. This robotic insect cum transformer-like flying machine is a concept design by Yutaka Igarashi. Is is sure to be popular amongst people who are keen to beat rush hour traffic! You'll need a helicopter license if you want to travel in this as there is no other person to fly it but you!
Igarashi is actually a Japanese sawmill worker who designs pretty amazing concept machines including his latest motorcycle design.
