Albatross: Sky-robot becomes self-driving boat
Researchers have developed a hybrid robot that is launched from the air and gently descends onto the water surface, then transforms into an autonomous sailboat for ocean monitoring and disaster response. The design relies on rigid wings that serve two functions: during descent, they act as propellers generating rotation to reduce landing speed, and once on the water, they convert into sails that propel the craft using the wind. Field tests from a height of 150 meters demonstrated the robot's ability to land gently and move autonomously on the water surface, while reducing complexity and weight through the use of multifunctional components. This makes it ideal for environmental monitoring and disaster response quickly and efficiently.
