Micro Flying Robot

Micro flying robots that fly like airplanes and helicopters consume much more energy than micro robots that fly like advanced insects such as flies.A new study now shows that a fly wing that spins like a helicopter blade generates the same amount of lift as a flapping fly wing while consuming only half the energy to move the wing. This finding can inspire the design of efficient micro flying robots with spinning fly-like wings.

Project Description:

• Flapping linkages: = In a fixed-wing aircraft, the spar is often the main structural member of the wing, running spanwise at right angles (or thereabouts depending on wing sweep) to the fuselage. The spar carries flight loads and the weight of the wings while on the ground.
• Small Gear box: A transmission is a machine in a power transmission system, which provides controlled application of the power. Often the term transmission refers simply to the gearbox that uses gears and gear trains to provide speed and torque conversions from a rotating power source to another device.
• Dc motor: A DC motor is any of a class of rotary electrical machines that converts direct current electrical energy into mechanical energy. The most common types rely on the forces produced by magnetic fields. Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current flow in part of the motor.
• Carbon paper wing: = Plastic-coated paper is a coated or laminated composite material made of paper or paperboard with a plastic layer or treatment on a surface. This type of coated paper is most used in the food and drink packaging industry.

• transmitter/receiver: = In electronics and telecommunications, a transmitter or radio transmitter is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna. The transmitter itself generates a radio frequency alternating current, which is applied to the antenna. When excited by this alternating current, the antenna radiates radio waves.
• Micro motor:Micromotors are very small particles (measured in microns) that can move themselves. These micromotors actually propel themselves in a specific direction autonomously when placed in a chemical solution. A set of oxidation-reduction reactions produce a stream of bubbles that then propels these micromotors through the chemical media. Spherical micromotors are called Janus spheres, because they are composed of two different materials, like the two-faced Roman god of change Janus.
