‘Phantom Twist’ drone spins so fast the human eye can’t see it
Scientists at Northwestern University have designed a drone that spins so fast it disappears before your eyes.
The drone chassis spins at 25 RPM and, thanks to a quirk of human vision, it appears like a faint smudge in the air.
By exploiting the quirks of human vision, Northwestern University engineers have designed a drone that nearly disappears before the eyes. For years, researchers have tried to design invisible drones and robots using…
Researchers demonstrate that something interesting happens when a small drone with a spindly airframe spins at a high speed: it very nearly turns invisible. The spidery device is shown mounted in i…

Eine Drohne optisch zu tarnen, ist nicht einfach. Ingenieure nutzen einen Trick, um das menschliche Auge zu täuschen.
