Feedback and Control of Linear Electromagnetic Actuators for Flapping Wing MAVs

Abstract: We present a method for generating feedback and controlling multi-coil linear electromagnetic actuators for flapping wing systems. This has been achieved with a system capable of self-lifting, constructed using 3D-printed structures and miniaturised electromagnetic actuators with a combined weight of 3.07 g. Combining multiple magnets and coils into a single actuator with onboard feedback sensors has improved power densities upon existing linear electromagnetic systems present in the literature. The use of clo… Show more

“…This can include laser displacement sensors to measure the wing position [69,70] or the position of fixed points in the system such as a slider or the actuator itself [42,44,71], which can also be measured using infra-red [64]. Alternatively, particle image velocimetry can be used to measure the airflow over the wing [73] or a motion capture system to record the motion of aspects of the system during flight [74].…”
