First-Ever Airfoil Profile of In-Flight Bird May Inspire Future MAV Concepts
Three-dimensional mapping derived from stereo-vision images taken of the bird’s wing produced the first-ever measurement of a live bird’s wing airfoil profile while in unrestrained flight. These results will aid efforts to understand the morphing that occurs during flight maneuvers—which, in turn, will benefit development of tomorrow’s MAVs.
