Students designing winged drones for long-range flights

eLearningworld News

Stanford is offering undergraduate the engineering course Aerial Robot Design, a class, led by David Lentink, assistant professor of mechanical engineering. At the course, the students learn to build delivery drones both quadcopter and winged drones. Besides the learning from hands-on collaborative teamwork of making a drone and fly the prototype, the ambition is also
that the course fosters skills in robotics, aerodynamics, user-centered design, and systems engineering, which is of great benefit for the student’s future professional careers. See the video below for more information about the course.
