Bio-Inspired Morphing Tail for Flapping-Wings Aerial Robots Using Macro Fiber Composites

The aim of this work is to present the development of a bio-inspired approach for a robotic tail using Macro Fiber Composites (MFC) as actuators. The use of this technology will allow achieving closer to the nature approach of the tail, aiming to mimic a bird tail behavior. The tail will change its...
