Bio-inspired eye stabilizes robot's flight
10 March 2015, 11:41 am

Biorobotics researchers have developed the first aerial robot able to fly over uneven terrain that is stabilized visually without an accelerometer. Called BeeRotor, it adjusts its speed and avoids obstacles thanks to optic flow sensors inspired by insect vision. It can fly along a tunnel with uneven, moving walls without measuring either speed or altitude.

Now this is cool! Really looking forward to improvements in artificial vision and the software-aspect of all of this.

But I still can't have a cool drone and fly it for more then 15 minutes - want new batteries, now!
Software and Hardware developer, and everything in between.
