Soft biohybrid morphing wings with feathers underactuated by wrist and finger motion.

Science robotics Jan 16, 2020
Since the Wright Flyer, engineers have strived to develop flying machines with morphing wings that can control flight as deftly as birds. Birds morph their wing planform parameters simultaneously-including sweep, span, and area-in a way that has prov...

Adaptive Neural Network Control of a Flapping Wing Micro Aerial Vehicle With Disturbance Observer.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics Oct 1, 2017
The research of this paper works out the attitude and position control of the flapping wing micro aerial vehicle (FWMAV). Neural network control with full state and output feedback are designed to deal with uncertainties in this complex nonlinear FWM...

Fruit fly scale robots can hover longer with flapping wings than with spinning wings.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface Oct 1, 2016
Hovering flies generate exceptionally high lift, because their wings generate a stable leading edge vortex. Micro flying robots with a similar wing design can generate similar high lift by either flapping or spinning their wings. While it requires le...
