Researchers build experimental drone that flies without moving parts

The concept, known as a solid-state ornithopter, replaces the typical network of actuators with electricity-driven materials that deform when voltage is applied. This approach could represent a turning point for next-generation aerial vehicles, combining principles of aerodynamics, materials science, and biomechanics into a single design model.
