Abstract

In this paper, we present prototype robot to replicate features of dragonfly flight. We have observed and revealed characteristics of dragonfly flight in lifting, cruising, and hovering. With flapping fore and hind wings out of phase, we have achieved sustained flight with our dragonfly prototype. We present overview of observation, flapping mechanism, experimental setups, and experimental results.
