Robotics and AI are reaching heights that we had probably only seen in sci-fi movies earlier. Scientists at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have unveiled Raven (Robotic ...

In 2021, a group of scientists from China engineered the RoboFalcon—a bird-inspired flapping-wing robot with a newly ...

Just like a real raven, the robot is also capable of jumping into takeoff when starting a flight. Tests showed that boosting takeoff speed in this manner was considerably more energy-efficient than ...

A robot with bird-like legs that can walk, hop, leap and jump for take-off into flight has been designed in Switzerland in an engineering breakthrough that could enable aircraft to operate in ...

A pigeon-inspired robot has solved the mystery of how birds fly without the vertical tail fins that human-designed aircraft rely on. Its makers say the prototype could eventually lead to passenger ...

Unlike birds, which navigate unknown environments with remarkable speed and agility, drones typically rely on external guidance or pre-mapped routes. However, a groundbreaking development by Professor ...
