Resilient Tiny Flying Robot Moves Closer to Real-World Flight

Original: Built to Take a Hit: Tiny Flying Robot is a Step Closer to Flight Beyond the Lab

Engineers at UC Davis have developed a tiny flying robot designed to survive collisions, a step toward taking such drones out of the laboratory and into real-world environments. The work, highlighted by the university's College of Engineering, focuses on durability so small aerial robots can operate around people, obstacles and unpredictable conditions outside controlled settings.

Why now: The university announced new robotics research showing progress toward practical, crash-tolerant flying robots.
