Festo’s always had cool biomimicry projects - they’re like Boston Dynamics without all the weird military undertones.

Looking at that flight, though, you’re gonna need the mother of all image stabilization algos if you’re looking to put a camera on that thing…



Festo is developing a new biologically inspired device/bionic animal for the Hannover Messe (a renowned trade fair in Hanover, Germany) for many years now. Searching YouTube/the web for Festo and bionic will return a lot of amazing results.


It uses a pretty interesting/unique mechanical system for flight control. Neat!
