Design of the High-Payload Flapping Wing Robot E-Flap

RA-L 2021

Autonomous lightweight flapping-wing robots show potential to become a safe and affordable solution for rapidly deploying robots around humans and in complex environments. The absence of propellers makes such vehicles more resistant to physical contact, permitting flight in cluttered environments, a

The GRIFFIN Perception Dataset: Bridging the Gap Between Flapping-Wing Flight and Robotic Perception

RA-L 2021

The development of automatic perception systems and techniques for bio-inspired flapping-wing robots is severely hampered by the high technical complexity of these platforms and the installation of onboard sensors and electronics. Besides, flapping-wing robot perception suffers from high vibration l

Contact-Based Bridge Inspection Multirotors: Design, Modeling, and Control Considering the Ceiling Effect

RA-L 2019

This letter presents the design, modeling, and control of a multirotor for inspection of bridges with full contact. The letter analyzes the aerodynamic ceiling effect when the aerial robot approaches the bridge surface from below, including its aerodynamic characterization using computational fluid
