Robotics/Microrobotics

Dr. Hamid Vejdani has been awarded a 3-year research grant from NSF to achieve the following goals:

• Collaborating with Brown University and University of Colorado to understand how flying animals (bats specifically) maneuver in the air
• Use the physics of bat flight into providing design and control protocols for flying robots
• Dynamical modeling of prey-predator pursuit in the air for flapping winged systems
