Raptors can change the shape and area of their wings to an exceptional degree in a fast and efficient manner, surpassing other birds, insects, or bats. Some researchers have focused on the functional properties of muscle skeletons, mechanics, and flapping robot design. However, the wing motion of the birds of prey has not been measured quantitatively, and synthetic bionic wings with morphing abilities similar to raptors are far from reality. Therefore, in the current study, a 3D suspension system for holding bird carcasses was designed and fabricated to fasten the wings of Falco Peregrinus with a series of morphing postures. Subsequently, the wing skeleton of the falcon was scanned during extending motions using the computed tomography (CT) approach to obtain three consecutive poses. Subsequently, the skeleton was reconstructed to identify the contribution of the forelimb bones to the extending/folding motions. Inspired by these findings, we propose a simple mechanical model with four bones to form a wing-morphing mechanism using the proposed pose optimisation method. Finally, a bionic wing mechanism was implemented to imitate the motion of the falcon wing—divided into inner and outer wings with folding and twisting motions. The results show that the proposed four-bar mechanism can track bone motion paths with high fidelity. |
