FestoThe flying assistance system
The projects of Festo's 'Bionic Learning Network' are always worth an eye-catcher. This year, the company presented the indoor flying object 'FreeMotionHandling' at the Hannover Messe.

Four of the propellers are mounted horizontally, similar to conventional quadrocopter technology. The other four propellers are aligned vertically. Together with the buoyancy of the helium sphere, this combination enables dynamic flight behavior in all spatial directions. It allows the flying object to be positioned precisely without tilting and the flying ring to rotate around its horizontal and vertical axis.
