Engineers believe a robot bird flying without a tailfin could revolutionise aviation. University of Groningen professor of Biomimetics David Lentink developed the robotic pigeon named PigeonBot II ...

A robot bird with an inbuilt drone mimics the movement of real creatures and could transform surveillance, according to the developers. Researchers at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, a ...

A flying robot uses its bird-like tail to maintain stability in flight – a technique that could enable more aerodynamic aircraft designs that use less fuel ...

PLP’s BIRD-FLIGHT™ Diverters were also installed robotically for the first time using FulcrumAir’s Mini LineFly™.

Scientists have built a bird-inspired robot with legs that can walk on the ground, hop over obstacles and jump into flight, an advance that may lead to the development of drones for complex ...

David Lentink, Professor of Biomimetics at the University of Groningen, has developed a robotic bird model with real pigeon feathers which flies like a bird.

About the research team The HKU Mechatronics and Robotic Systems Lab (MaRS LAB) is dedicated to the study of general mechatronic systems and robotics, with a particular emphasis on their practical ...

The first implementation of robotically installed PLP BIRD-FLIGHT Diverters took place during the recent High Banks Wind Project in Kansas. Nearly 15,000 bird diverters were installed using robotics ...

Artificial Flight: Modern drones have become pretty advanced, but they are very energy-inefficient. European researchers decided to take inspiration from birds to develop a new type of drone that ...
