"The Smartbird"


WHO- Markus Fischer created the robot that fly’s like a bird called The Smartbird.
WHAT- The Smartbird is a really light artificial bird that can fly like a real bird.
WHEN- The demo was created in 2011.
WHERE- The demo was filmed at TEDglobal. The Smartbird was created at Festo.
WHY- The Samrtbird was created to fulfill the dreams of flying like a bird by making a robot that can fly just like a real bird. It was inspired by the Herring Gull.
HOW- The Smartbird takes off in the air and flaps its wings like a real bird.

The Smartbird is related to information technology because it requires a lot of re-search to be made. It’s also related to information technology because to make the Smartbird you need skills with technology of computers. I liked how the Smartbird isn’t a real bird but it looks like one. I also liked that it has almost the exact same movements of a bird.
