Digital Morphing Wing: Active Wing Shaping Concept Using Composite Lattice-Based Cellular Structures
We describe an approach for the discrete and reversible assembly of tunable and actively deformable structures using modular building block parts for robotic applications. The primary technical challenge addressed by this work is the use of this method to design and fabricate low density, highly com...
