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)
