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...
Aerospace engineers demonstrate how electricity alone can drive flapping flight.
Really odd way to say they’re using piezo actuators. Does the author think that motors and the like on a device of this scale aren’t electrically actuated?
