We design avian-inspired drones with controllable wing flapping and morphing, mimicking the morphology, motion, and dynamics of real birds using lightweight, feather-like lifting structures
We study how beetles unfold and fold their complex wings, and how this unique mechanism helps them stay stable and resilient during flight
This research aims to study and develop insect-inspired, tailless, two-winged, centimeter-scale, flapping-wing microrobots that can perform agile maneuvers to autonomously navigate through unstructured and confined environments
This research explores how birds and insects achieve agile and precise flight maneuvers
Designing bird- and insect-inspired flapping robots with multi-purpose legs for efficient, adaptive movement across air, land, and water
