Flap like a bat: Soft pneumatic wings for biomimetic ornithopters
Overview
This paper describes the development of a bio-inspired ornithopter wing mechanism that uses soft pneumatic actuators, such as PneuNet structures, in place of revolute joints, inspired by the complicated kinematics of bat flight.
