Bee-inspired technology uses aerial drones to 3D-print structures

Building or repairing structures in difficult-to-reach locations is a daunting task, as bringing in the cranes, scaffolding and whatnot can be quite difficult. That's why scientists are creating a honeybee-inspired system, which uses flying 3D-printing drones to do the job.Known as Aerial Additive Manufacturing (Aerial-AM), the technology is being developed by researchers from Imperial College London and Switzerland's Empa institute. It actually incorporates two types of quadcopter drones, which fly autonomously and…
