Robo-beetle

Flight dynamics and control of birds and insects
Engineering tools  for flight dynamics and control are used to analyse physiological and biomechanical data from real animals. This will help us learn more about nature’s solutions of various technical problems related e.g to flying. A Robo-Beetle, with associated display and educational material, will be used to create a dialogue between researchers and public at the science festival events. Visitors will have a way to find out more about skills, characteristics and specific features of insects.
