JHU
A celebrated electrical and computer engineering professor at Johns Hopkins University is conducting AFOSR-supported research about the “miniaturization” of electronic chips, which would allow for lighter, smaller and faster computers for the Air Force. Dr. Alexander Kaplan, right, professor of electrical and computer engineering and Dr. Sergei Volkov, a postdoctoral fellow at John’s Hopkins University are working together on the research.

Bat-Inspired Flight for MAVs
As part of the 2007 MURI program, researchers from several universities are studying how the biological attributes of flapping and flexible flight demonstrated by birds, bats and insects can improve future MAV systems. This research has led to the creation of engineering models, such as the one illustrated in this graphic. (Image credit: Dr. Wei Shyy, University of Michigan)
