Design, Control, and Motion Strategy of TRADY: Tilted‐Rotor‐Equipped Aerial Robot With Autonomous In‐Flight Assembly and Disassembly Ability

Abstract

Aerial Robot with the Ability to Assemble in Mid-Air In article 2300191, Junichiro Sugihara, Moju Zhao, and co-workers introduce TRADY, an innovative aerial robot. TRADY can autonomously assemble/disassemble mid-air, enhancing control and torque. The prototype boasts a 90% success rate in the assembly motion, delivering nine times the torque of a single unit when assembled.
