‘PigeonBot’ is the first robot that can bend its wings like a real bird
Insights into the joint movements and feather surface structures that help birds control their wing shape could help robotic flyers move more deftly.
Pigeon-inspired drone bends its wings to make it more agile
The PigeonBot could lead to drones that can manage tight turns and fly through turbulence.
A robot equipped with real pigeon feathers flies like a living bird
Pigeons feathers are remarkably complex and understanding how they work has led to the first robot that flies like a pigeon, dubbed PigeonBot
Soft biohybrid morphing wings with feathers underactuated by wrist and finger motion
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 ...
How flight feathers stick together to form a continuous morphing wing
Birds can dynamically alter the shape of their wings during flight, although how this is accomplished is poorly understood. Matloff et al. found that two mechanisms control the movement of ...
