Falcon-inspired robot mimics natural bird takeoff with reconfigurable wing system
The breakthrough lies in RoboFalcon2.0’s reconfigurable wing system. By combining mechanical decouplers with a lightweight ...
In 2021, a group of scientists from China engineered the RoboFalcon—a bird-inspired flapping-wing robot with a newly ...
The Robo Falcon 2 robot falcon has been given new wing kinematics. Lifelike takeoffs and slow flight are now possible.
More than 1.2 billion birds streamed south in a single night setting a Fall migration record for the public radar project ...
This study addresses an important question and shows how social navigation in homing pigeons can be explained by simple averaging, without requiring any complex cognitive abilities. The evidence, ...
Ahmed K. Othman, Girguis Sedky, Hannah Wiswell and Aimy Wissa (left to right) equipped the wings of an RC plane with covert-inspired flaps, and flew it at Princeton's Forrestal Campus to prove that ...
