Flap like a bat: Soft pneumatic wings for biomimetic ornithopters

1 reports1 reporting sourcesUpdated 1 days ago

Overview

Event synthesis

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.
