MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611051610 A) filed by Manav Rachna University, Faridabad, Haryana, on April 22, for 'morphing-wing drone system.'
Inventor(s) include Mr. Ansh Chauhan; Mr. Dev Dixit; Dr. Priyanka Bansal; and Dr. Monika Goyal.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Disclosed is a morphing-wing drone system comprising a drone body, a morphing wing assembly coupled to the drone body, a sensor assembly generating flight-condition data representative of airspeed, air disturbance, inertial state, and payload condition, a control unit processing the flight-condition data to determine a present flight condition and a target wing state, and an actuator assembly executing a wing-state command to cause expansion, contraction, angular adjustment, or asymmetric adjustment of the wing structure during flight. The system enables real-time physical reconfiguration of the wing structure in response to changing flight conditions. In further arrangements, the system may employ simultaneous evaluation of multiple sensed parameters, hybrid actuation, guided spanwise movement, distributed transmission, bounded actuation travel, segmented wing support architecture, and protected actuation routing within the drone body."
