FSTAR Drone Shifts from Air to Ground

May-29-19 The FSTAR drone invention can fly, drive and even squeeze itself smaller using the same system of motors.

Developed by a team from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, the FSTAR (flying sprawl-tined autonomous robot) is the first of its kind, able to shift from a flat, flying profile to a ‘sprawling’ 55-degree angle able to travel on the ground at up to eight feet per second. The robot can climb over small obstacles and compress itself to fit through narrow areas, and its low power requirements make it attractive for uses such as package delivery—landing in drone form and then driving up to the door with the package.
