About

A cutting-edge system leverages Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENGs) for energy harvesting in biomimetic unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). By mimicking natural mechanisms, this innovative approach captures mechanical energy from environmental interactions, such as wing flapping or airflow, converting it into usable electrical power. This sustainable energy solution enhances the endurance and operational efficiency of UAVs, paving the way for advancements in eco-friendly aviation and extended mission capabilities.
