Freely in a narrow space … Bridge deformation drones

The Foldable Drone was created by the Zurich Institute of Technology in Switzerland. You can reduce the size of the body by folding four legs, such as thin, long, deformed or folded like a name. There are four types of deformations: X, T, H, and O. You can also change your leg shape asymmetrically.

With this drone, you can continue flying in any direction. You can put things in between the legs. By analyzing two images taken with a camera and a computer with a sensor, you can freely open and close your legs using four independent servomotors.

The Folded Bronron was developed with the inspiration of a bird folding its wings and passing through a narrow space, which was developed with the goal of folding legs through narrow holes. We can expect utility in places like disaster scene. For more information, please click here .
