Abstract: On a main body portion of a fluttering apparatus, a wing (left wing) is formed which has a front wing shaft, a rear wing shaft and a wing film provided spreading over the front and rear wing shafts. Further, on the main body portion, a rotary actuator for driving the front wing shaft and a rotary actuator for: driving the rear wing shaft are mounted. The front (rear) wing shafts reciprocate in a plane orthogonally crossing an axis of rotation with the actuator serving as the fulcrum. Thus, a moving apparatus is obtained which has superior maneuverability and can move not hindered by any obstacle or geometry both indoors and outdoors.

Abstract: Aerial vehicles, their structures and methods of locomotion are described. An aerial vehicle may include a fuselage having an x-axis, a plurality of flexible structures emanating from the fuselage that take the form of a feather, wing and/or tentacle, at least one motor, and at least one propeller driven by one or more motors. Each flexible structure may extend from a fuselage in any direction and are used to enhance the observability of the aircraft by moving and/or oscillating within a frequency band and at a magnitude that is more easily observed by and catches the human eye.

Abstract: An autonomous flapping wing aerial vehicle can have a vehicle body, a pair of flapping wings, tunable wing hinges, and elastic drive mechanisms. The tunable wing hinges can be coupled to the flapping wings. Each wing hinge can be constructed to deliver a force to a respective one of the flapping wings to alter end points of a stroke thereof. The elastic drive mechanisms can rotate the flapping wings about pivot points to produce the strokes of the flapping wings. The elastic drive mechanism can be driven at or near a resonance thereof. Alterations to the strokes of the flapping wings produced by the combined effect of the tunable wing hinges and the elastic drive mechanisms, operating in parallel, can provide steering control of the aerial vehicle.

Abstract: The wing flapping mechanism (100) includes a main frame (110), a pair of opposite wings (120) laterally projecting from the main frame (110), and a linkage arrangement to convert rotation of a motor (150) into a three-dimensional cyclic wing motion of each of the wings (120). The linkage arrangement includes torque-transmitting couplings extending from inside the main frame (110) into the wing structures (122) to transmit an alternating pivoting motion, created as a result of the rotation of the motor (150), to the distal end of a corresponding third torsion-responsive tube (140, 144′″). Each torque-transmitting coupling extends inside a shoulder joint (130), a first torsion-responsive tube (132, 144′), an elbow joint (134), a second torsion-responsive tube (136, 144″), a wrist joint (138) and the third torsion-responsive tube (140, 144′″) of the corresponding wing structure (122).
