Cornell University has recently been working on perfecting the replication of insect flying techniques in robots. While not a new idea, their approach uses new technology to make the process of creating the robot less time-consuming and faulty. The wings of the rob-insect were created using a 3-D printer in order to achieve the optimal wing shape […]
