These Micro Fliers Float In The Air And Collect Environment Data
The researchers took inspiration from the falling seeds of various plants and how they glide through the air. The team studied the aerodynamics of the seeds and designed a battery-less flight mechanism that enables the tiny electronic fliers to remain in the air for as long as possible. During their time in the air, they can collect various kinds of environmental data for researchers and scientists for further analysis. The scientists developed different kinds of prototypes of the tiny fliers....
