By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – A patent application by the inventors BREUER, Kenneth (Newton, MA, US); FAN, Xiaozhou (Pasadena, CA, US), filed on Nov ember 20, 2023, was made available online on May 23, 2024, according to news rep orting originating from Washington, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “The present invention relates generally to dron es, and more particularly to a bio-inspired flapping wing/fin robotic platform. “Drones and other small aircraft have been of great interest in the last few yea rs. Many drones or small aircraft have been in development for use in a number o f different industries including surveillance, product delivery, real estate, pe rsonnel transport, and entertainment. Many developers have included designs that include multiple rotors that can generate lift and thrust to propel an aircraft . Additionally, some manufactures have incorporated various other components to help improve the overall flight characteristics, including fixed wings and/or co ntrol surfaces. In some ways, manufactures can be limited in the overall design of an aircraft by the types of maneuvers desired as well as the potential for pa yload. The change in design and/or payload can affect the respective aerodynamic forces that contribute to the flight of the aircraft and thus lead to additiona l rotors or control surfaces to help maintain the desired flight characteristics .
