RAVEN is a bird-inspired drone that can walk, hop, and jump into flight! Designed by PhD student Won Dong Shin and the team at EPFL’s Laboratory of Intelligent Systems (LIS). RAVEN’s unique legs mimic birds like crows, letting it take off from rough terrain and access hard-to-reach areas. This innovation opens up new possibilities for drones in inspection, delivery, and disaster relief.
