In indoor tests, RAVEN could jump almost half a metre into the air and at 2.4 metres per second – which is a similar speed to birds of the same size – at which point a propeller takes over.

RAVEN in land mode – although other groups have previously attempted to build walking/flying robots, the legs have typically proven to be too heavy for sustained flight ...

In the end, the robotic legs weighed around 230 grams, way more than the real ones in a carrion crow, but it turned out that was good enough for the RAVEN robot to walk, jump, take off, and fly ...

BIRDS frequently perform strange antics in the air, both during courtship and at other times, and the air acrobatics of the raven have long been known. Thus Morris describes him as “performing ...

Raven weighs just 0.62kg and has avian-inspired legs that replicate bird-like limb dynamics. The design, led by PhD student Won Dong Shin, combines mathematical modeling, computer simulations, and ...

EPFL's Laboratory of Intelligent Systems developed RAVEN, a bird-inspired drone capable of walking, jumping, and flying. This 0.62 kg drone mimics avian leg and feet movements, enabling it to ...
