Bio-inspired flapping wing robots with foldable or deformable wings: a review.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Nov 15, 2022
Traditional flapping-wing robots (FWRs) obtain lift and thrust by relying on the passive deformation of their wings which cannot actively fold or deform. In contrast, flying creatures such as birds, bats, and insects can maneuver agilely through acti...
