Quoth the Robo-Raven, “Recharge me!” Post a Comment <p id="speakable-summary">Researchers at the University of Maryland A. James Clark School of Engineering have been working on the so-called Robo Raven for years. The ongoing project resulted in the first flying drone with independent wing movement, a feature that made these U of M UAV’s closer to birds than ever before.</p> <p>Now Lena Johnson, a Ph.D. candidate in mechanical engineering, has created the Robo Raven V, an advanced version of the flying drone.</p> <p>“Robo Raven has given me an entire platform to explore how engineers can take advantage of avian flight to improve drone capabilities,” she told <a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/robotics/robotics-hardware/robotic-raven-gains-altitude">IEEE< ?A>. “As a Ph.D. student, my research is focused on achieving something new with this UAV platform that has already made aviation history by flying on wings that can move independently of each other.”</a></p> <p><a href="https://spectrum.ieee.org/robotics/robotics-hardware/robotic-raven-gains-altitude">The new raven has two propellers for faster takeoff and has improved maneuverability thanks to better wing design. As you can see above, it flies like a big butterfly, lightly taking to the breeze with massive mylar wings. It’s a pretty – and clever – version of the typical flying drone and it will be interesting to see how far Johnson can take the technology.</a></p> <div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/crunchgear?a=T6mdvvSJKxw:gkWuzL7GMPA:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_tOHwtRUkuPlcFKgiq1A7m1CHfsp78eD90JV8h6gjL2B4UrBURx-vDyUO071Weq5mQv0xN1IxiRufAWqxoZ5mkRVDVsRIHTPLe7VIT39Y8ifXwBUDktOx8SRxckMnCKzKPv2r6I7fC55Ad7RnQ5uMz8PBfE=s0-d"></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/crunchgear?a=T6mdvvSJKxw:gkWuzL7GMPA:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_saaRm8mEn3HRSZLU4tjAOFqePknjy2xDTFZvLPBSHMRlv2o7l0T_TC8EP6iVftBVRwFjAlapVOLNQjjczN1M8irxype7ZX52vVSm0U0tshlyPgOOUWBUuanZCWPYaia7xylQwrRJcV1RI5yisHnBdDMjEM=s0-d"></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/crunchgear?a=T6mdvvSJKxw:gkWuzL7GMPA:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vRzqnYRerX7Hf9tCoGYpU2lV5ev7UtRGJW9EHqBesqeI28NRWZNb93fAvYJlHA4SrvLrYBnDS8mYC9W1756_Mhno-_nYnbxdDQcypJoeD_CxRjLs1zZNSf9jU=s0-d"></a></div> <br /> <br /> <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2018/10/24/quoth-the-robo-raven-recharge-me/">Read More</a> Share : Post a Comment for "Quoth the Robo-Raven, “Recharge me!”"
