Talking Robots: Jean-Christophe Zufferey



In the new Talking Robots
podcast, Jean-Christophe
Zufferey presents his 10g micro-flyer
which uses vision as main source of information to autonomously navigate
in indoor environments. As can be seen from this video, it looks
similar to a plane but its flight dynamics have much more in common with
a fly. In the interview
Jean-Christophe Zufferey explains how his bio-inspired approach has
allowed him to develop this ultra-light, autonomous platform, and gives
us an inside view of developments for flying robots today and in the
future.
