"The robot presented by Markus Fischer, head of Bionic Learning Network and Corporate Design at Festo AG & Co. KG. After 5 years of development he has recently presented the first "Smart-bird". Many robots can fly but none so far could fly like a bird - not until Markus Fischer's invention."
Smart-Bird is a mechanical model that is able to fly by flapping its wings like a bird. It is very light but very powerful and aerodynamically efficient, so that it can take off, fly and land on its own. It was built in 2011 by Festo, a German company specializing in automation. Smart-Bird's movements are graceful and awe-inspiring!!!
