WPI researchers are enabling aerial robots, smaller than 100 mm and weighing less than 100 g, to navigate without relying on vision.

Human echolocation refers to the remarkable ability of some individuals to utilise self-generated sounds – typically mouth clicks – and interpret the returning echoes to derive detailed spatial ...

A robotics engineering professor is building tiny, autonomous flying robots that can use sound waves to navigate in total ...

Inspired by how humans cup their ears or bats adjust ear ... These drones can combine echolocation with inertial and other ...

Bats are nocturnal hunters and use echolocation to orientate themselves by emitting high-frequency ultrasonic sounds in rapid succession and evaluating the calls’ reflections. Yet, they have retained ...
