The hybrid aquatic-aerial robot (HAAR) enables efficient water-air transition through surface-skimming maneuvers, but the complex free-surface interactions and unsteady hydrodynamic effects presents ...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — A new competition is pitting engineers against one another in hopes of developing the next step in rescue technology. The GoAERO prize is a $2 million global competition to create ...

Abstract: In recent years, the engineering application value of hybrid aquatic-aerial robots (HAARs) has been increasingly validated. However, during the hydrofoil planing process, time-varying ...

The test followed a rescue style script, with X1 acting as a rapid first responder that could survey the scene before human ...

The three hours Maksym spent being transported through the battlefield in eastern Ukraine felt like an eternity. But the remote-controlled capsule on wheels was the injured soldier’s best way out.

Raytheon has received a contract to equip the autonomous X-62A Variable In-flight Simulation Test Aircraft (VISTA) with a ...

Two autonomous robots combine walking, flying, and rolling in rescue missions that would be too risky for humans.

In the most recent tests, the system successfully transmitted lasers to aircraft flying up to 5,000 feet (1,524 meters), the ...
