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 ...

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.

Birds, bats, and bees all use distinct muscles to deploy and retract their wings. Smaller insects, given the less space available, may be different and scientists are still debating if they use indeed ...
