This project investigates how birds use vision to guide their flight, aiming to apply these insights to unmanned autonomous aircraft. It combines advanced motion capture technology to study avian guidance and control mechanisms in various flight scenarios.
Birds have been called “une aile guidée par un oeil”, and whilst they possess many senses besides vision, their wings are indeed guided largely by their eyes.
Nevertheless, we know surprisingly little of how birds use vision to guide their flight, and almost nothing of the underlying guidance and control laws.
This is an extraordinary omission, and unfortunate given the importance that vision is poised to assume in autonomous unmanned aircraft.
With good reason, the law still requires a human e…
