Drones 'transform themselves' to avoid obstacles
In only 250 milliseconds, Quad Morphing wingspan will reduce by 48% and overcome obstacles or narrow spaces before returning to the original position.
is the name only for aircraft without pilots but is controlled from a remote center.
Quad-Morphing, the first drone can self-evade obstacles.
According to the development of technology, the newly built UAVs are now very diverse, with small to medium engine sizes and capacities, called drones. UAV drone applications are currently growing strongly, from military purposes to scientific research, cinema - television, agriculture, commerce, and entertainment.
However, the problem is that the drone must be remotely controlled but not able to fly by itself and cannot "spleen" itself to avoid obstacles.
Meanwhile, by observing how birds fly, it is found that instinctive birds will adjust their wingspan in a fraction of a second so as not to touch trees or to avoid obstacles. on the way.
Quad-Morphing can fly itself into every narrow corner.
It is from this observation that researchers at the Institut des Sciences du Mouvement (France's National Center for Scientific Research) (CNRS) have collaborated with the University of Aix-Marseille. For the design, the Quad-Morphing can fly itself into every narrow corner.
In the structure, on the two Quad-Morphing spindle heads are two movable arms to support the two propellers that create the same flexibility as a helicopter. When parked in place, these arms are perpendicular to the shaft to be ready for optimal takeoff. But when flying close to narrow areas, these two arms will be given a flexible and robust mechanical system with a twist to turn around to accommodate the space.
In 250 milliseconds (0.0042 Minutes), Quad Morphing wingspan will reduce by 48% and overcome obstacles or narrow spaces before returning to the original position. According to Dr. Stéphane Viollet, currently, a 3D motion capture system, consists of 17 cameras, enabling Quad-Morphing to locate, guide and turn off the camera system.
Quad-Morphing is well suited for conducting exploration and rescue tasks.
However, in the next version, Quad-Morphing will be fitted with a high-speed camera (120 frames per second) so that after estimating the size of the distance, it will decide whether to adjust the wing or not to pass. by. It is known that Quad-Morphing is very suitable for conducting exploration and rescue tasks within buildings.
