“…However, the majority of systems that utilize single-axis load cells simply mount the mechanism directly on an off-the-shelf sensor. Despite this simplicity, these directly mounted systems show robustness in measuring data at diverse flapping frequencies from less than 15 Hz [24][25][26][27][28], [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] to as high as 35 Hz [33]. The major advantage with this form of instrumentation is its simplicity.…”

There are flapping wing-style systems being developed by various institutions around the world. However, despite there being many systems that superficially appear robust, there is no viable flapping wing flying system at this time. We identified a gap in knowledge and capability, which is that the lack of appropriate instrumentation seems to be a major roadblock in further developing flapping wing flying systems. There is no complete solution in regards to instrumentation and sensing at the appropriate scales. This paper seeks to critically examine and classify the existing instrumentation utilized and reported in the literature and attempts to identify the path forward for flapping wing-style instrumentation.

“…Alternatively, systems use a coating on the entire wing to allow the full motion of the wing to be observed in imagery, such as in [69,70]. A stroboscope can also be used to enhance the detection of the kinematics of the system as is used in [24], or other markers can be used as in [29,39,42].…”
