Scientists have used the principles that guide a mosquito’s nocturnal flight to develop a quadcopter equipped with an elegant collision-avoidance sensory system. Their research, published in Science, demonstrates how the mosquito avoids obstacles in the dark by sensing changes in the airflows generated by its flapping wings. The

Researchers at the TU Dortmund University have just published a 22-page paper which addresses the challenges of UAS usage in maritime SAR scenarios which lie in the remote control as well as the real-time exchange of acquired information like sensor data, videos, and images. Abstract With the increasing

A team from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) came up with a method that dials us closer to more seamless human-robot collaboration. The system, called “Conduct-A-Bot,” uses human muscle signals from wearable sensors to pilot a robot’s movement. “We envision a world

Using delivery drones in cities consumes up to ten times more energy than electric vans because they can only carry one parcel at a time and require frequent back and forth trips, a new study finds. Dr. Thomas Kirschstein, an economist at the department of Production and Logistics at Martin
