Flapper Drones: flying robots can be safe and cute!
At Flapper Drones, we develop bioinspired robots that fly by flapping their wings, just like birds or insects. In this talk, you will learn how exactly they fly, what sensors they use and how we can make them autonomous. But also why they are better suited for flying near humans, compared to conventional drones.
Track: Smarthome
Level: Beginner
On-demand video: Yes
The talk can be viewed 14 days (after June 5, 2021) for logged visitors on the platform.
