The first flying humanoid robot launched
Researchers at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) have introduced a framework that can estimate thrust intensities of flying multibody systems that are not equipped with thrust-measuring sensors. This framework could ultimately help them to realize their envisioned flying humanoid robot.
The main purpose of the research was to conceive robots that could operate in disaster-like scenarios, avoiding debris, fire and floods.
