I have seen this flying robotic bird on youtube few days ago. Unlike other flying machines/robots, it flaps its wing to fly.



enter image description here



Doing google, I came to know that they are called bionic bird. But, bionic bird may not necessarily fly. They can be used as a spying robots sitting on a wall.



What do you call a robot or a machine flying like a bird?

          The name of this device dates back to the year 1908. It comes from French ornithoptère meaning a machine designed to fly be mechanical flapping of wings.



          Here, Greek ornitho- meaning brid + Greek -pteron meaning "wing".



          So, we have the word ornithopter.




          A machine designed to achieve flight by means of flapping wings.




          "In collaboration with SRI International in Menlo Park, California, they are developing ornithopters - aircraft that get all of their thrust and most of their lift from flapping wings."

            Regardless of the century, plane, or species, developing artificers never fail to invent the ornithopter.
