US engineers’ new wing design helps small robots fly longer by gliding like grasshoppers
Grasshopper’s gangly, awkward flight could solve the biggest power problems in robotics. Standard micro-bots are modeled ...
Princeton engineers investigated the secret to grasshoppers' efficient gliding, inspiring a new approach for robotic flight.
MIT researchers have demonstrated aerial microrobots that can fly with speed and agility that is comparable to their ...
A tiny mechanical entomopter using insect-like wing dynamics has achieved tethered flight following US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency funding of a "robotic fly" project at Harvard ...
Different insects flap their wings in different manners. Understanding the variations between these modes of flight may help scientists design better and more efficient flying robots in the future.
