Adjustable jointed landing legs and tilt control keep a flying robot level during touchdown on uneven surfaces, reducing balance loss.
Environmental sensing and priority-based data transmission help a land-air vehicle switch modes faster while coordinating ground and flight safety.
Adjustable propulsion posture and rearward leg orientation cut drag and improve moving distance per unit energy in a walking robot.
An enclosed drone uses an elastic shell to protect the air vehicle assembly during flight and ground rolling operations.
