Abstract EN
Dragonflies demonstrate unique and superior flight performances than most of the other insect species and birds.
They are equipped with two pairs of independently controlled wings granting an unmatchable flying performance and robustness.
In this paper, the dynamics of a dragonfly-inspired robot is studied.
The system performance is analyzed in terms of time response and robustness.
The development of computational simulation based on the dynamics of the robotic dragonfly allows the test of different control algorithms.
We study different movements, the dynamics, and the level of dexterity in wing motion of the dragonfly.
The results are positive for the construction of flying platforms that effectively mimic the kinematics and dynamics of dragonflies and potentially exhibit superior flight performance than existing flying platforms.
