Tiny Drones Inspired by Bats
Researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute are developing tiny drones that use echolocation, like bats, to navigate in dark and challenging conditions.
The drones are being designed for search and rescue missions, and could potentially save lives in situations where visibility is low.
- Use echolocation for navigation
- Designed for search and rescue missions
- Can operate in dark and challenging conditions
The robotics lab at Worcester Polytechnic Institute is working on this innovative project.
