Researchers have created a pigeon-inspired robot with bird-like reflexes, enabling it to stay stable in turbulent conditions.

Engineers believe a robot bird flying without a tailfin could revolutionise aviation. University of Groningen professor of Biomimetics David Lentink developed the robotic pigeon named PigeonBot II ...

A pigeon-inspired robot has solved the mystery of how birds fly without the vertical tail fins that human-designed aircraft rely on. Its makers say the prototype could eventually lead to passenger ...

A pigeon-inspired flying robot is solving avian mysteries that may help create more stable aircrafts. While birds seem to seamlessly maintain stability during turbulence, airplanes need rudders and ...

Researchers at the University of Groningen have developed a robotic bird with real pigeon feathers that uses the same control mechanisms as a biological bird. It is controlled by changing the shape of ...
