Researchers from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland and UC Irvine have developed a drone ...

This new drone takes its inspiration from birds, which, as you may have noticed, have both legs and wings. Engineers have ...

RAVEN, a bird-inspired robot, seamlessly walks, hops, and jumps into flight, offering new possibilities for drones in complex ...

Scientists have built a bird-inspired robot with legs that can walk on the ground, hop over obstacles and jump into flight, ...

Most drones on the market are rotary-wing quadcopters, which can conveniently land and take off almost anywhere. The problem ...

took inspiration from the anatomy of birds to design a multifunctional robotic leg that enables RAVEN, the authors’ uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV), to walk, hop, jump and fly. Adding legs to such ...

Researchers have built a drone that can walk, hop, and jump into flight with the aid of birdlike legs, greatly expanding the range of potential environments accessible to unmanned aerial vehicles.

Their Robotic Avian-inspired Vehicle for multiple ENvironments (RAVEN) trades traditional landing gear for a pair of bird-inspired articulated legs that allow the drone to walk around, hop over ...

A robot bird that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in an engineering breakthrough that ...

A bipedal, winged robot inspired by birds combines the forward-flight efficiency of fixed-wing aircraft with the vertical takeoff and landing abilities of drones.

A team of Swiss researchers has devised a possible solution by slapping some legs on a drone known as the RAVEN. This new drone takes its inspiration from birds, which, as you may have noticed ...
