REFLEX: A Learned On-Board Reflex for Robust Autonomous Collision Recovery of Soft Quadrotors
Jakob Hermeler, Luca Girardi, Gabriel Maquignaz +2
Collision-resilient airframes allow quadrotors to survive impacts, but do not ensure autonomous post-collision recovery. Innovation gating in stock onboard estimators often rejects…

Bioinspired Soft Quadrotors Jointly Unlock Agility, Squeezability, and Collision Resilience
Luca Girardi, Gabriel Maquignaz, Stefano Mintchev
Natural flyers use soft wings to seamlessly enable a wide range of flight behaviours, including agile manoeuvres, squeezing through narrow passageways, and withstanding collisions.…
