What if urban air taxis could, like birds, vary the configuration of their wings in flight? The answer to such questions could soon become reality through morphing wing technology assisted by ...

Morphing Technologies & Artificial Intelligence Research Group (morphAIR) is the name of the project in which wings were ...

In modern research and development contexts, aerial robotics are expanding beyond their hobbyist origins. A forthcoming generation of AI-enabled VTOL prototypes signifies a convergence wherein ...

Membrane wings in micro air vehicles (MAVs) represent a promising avenue for enhancing aerodynamic performance in low Reynolds number regimes. These flexible lifting surfaces, inspired by natural ...

MIT and NASA researchers have developed a morphing airplane wing that goes back to the future: The entire wing bends and twists, much as the Wright brothers' Flyer 1 did more than a century ago.
