Description: Mnoštvo robota može letjeti -- ali nijedan ne može letjeti poput prave ptice. To jest, sve dok Markus Fischer i njegov tim u Festo-u nisu izradili SmartBird, veliki, lagani robot, koji je modeliran po uzoru na galeba, koji leti mlatareći krilima. Uzvišeno svježa demostracija iz TEDGlobala 2011.

Markus Fischer: Robot koji leti poput ptice

Robot koji leti poput ptice

Mnoštvo robota može letjeti -- ali nijedan ne može letjeti poput prave ptice. To jest, sve dok Markus Fischer i njegov tim u Festo-u nisu izradili SmartBird, veliki, lagani robot, koji je modeliran po uzoru na galeba, koji leti mlatareći krilima. Uzvišeno svježa demostracija iz TEDGlobala 2011.

Humans have long dreamed of flying like birds, but imitating their effortless, agile flight remained a challenge. A lightweight robot modeled on the herring gull, with a two-meter wingspan and just 450 grams in weight, finally achieved this by flapping and twisting its wings for lift and propulsion. This breakthrough emerged from careful study of avian motion and precise engineering of carbon fiber structures. The result is a machine that not only soars overhead but does so with remarkable energy efficiency.
