Development of a flapping mechanism inspired by the flexible wing-base structure of insects for wing motion control
Flying insects are capable of hovering and rapid maneuver under unpredictable environments. The principal wing-beat is generated by transmitting the rhythmical contractions of power muscles to the exoskeleton and wing-base articulation. Fine-tuning of the flapping wing kinematics is achieved by defo...
