When a ladybug takes flight, its wings spring open within a tenth of a second—faster than a blink of an eye. And once unfurled, those wings remain open, allowing them to flap quickly without risk of folding or buckling. These properties make the colorful little beetles a great source of inspiration […]
Following up on previously reported multi-faceted micro-camera designs inspired by the eye structures of paper wasp specie Xenos peckii, researchers from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have shrunk their camera stack to a total track length of 740μm.
“Taking a cue from birds and insects, researchers have come up with a new wing design for small drones that helps them fly more efficiently and makes them more robust to atmospheric turbulence.” This new modification to smooth contours of the wing allows for better battery life and a safer flight […]
