Moths fight back: arms race in the cloud forest
… that the moth Amastus hyalina displayed both flight and acoustic responses to ultrasonic stimuli. In tethered flight the tiger moth Amastus hyalina (Arctiinae) exhibits a complex array of reactions to ultrasonic tones that includes changes in flight and production of ultrasonic clicks. The …

Autonomous Sensing and Navigation in Challenging Environments Using Unmanned Air Vehicles in Single- and Multi-Agent Settings
… UAS capable of measuring air wakes while flying tethered behind a moving vessel. The unique challenges of tethered flight control and relative state estimation in a feature-starved environment are addressed with a novel planning and control architecture together with an error-state Kalman filter …

Response to visual threats in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes
… variety of conditions (i.e., landed, in free or tethered flight). Results from these experiments allowed us to characterize the escape responses of mosquitoes, by determining the angles and distances to the stimuli that will most likely trigger an avoidance response.
