In 2021, a group of scientists from China engineered the RoboFalcon—a bird-inspired flapping-wing robot with a newly engineered mechanism made to drive bat-style morphing wings capable of flight.
The Robo Falcon 2 robot falcon has been given new wing kinematics. Lifelike takeoffs and slow flight are now possible.

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 frame, the robot can flap, sweep, and fold its wings in a coordinated rhythm ...
During the preliminary design phase of flapping-wing micro air vehicles (FWMAVs), there currently exists a deficiency in ...
