For the first time, researchers have observed that birds that fly actively and flap their wings save energy. Researchers showed that jackdaws minimize their energy consumption when they lift off and ...
Bio-inspired wind sensing using strain sensors on flexible wings could revolutionize robotic flight control strategy. Researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo have developed a method to detect wind ...
A robotic bird with flapping wings covered in real feathers has flown for the first time. It could be used to provide insights into how real birds fly or to create stealthy drones that look like ...
