Bionic Bird – The Swift is a biomimetic flying robot inspired by bird flight. Instead of propellers, it uses flapping wings for a silent, smooth, natural flying experience. Ultra-lightweight and aerodynamically designed, it mimics real avian motion for realism and agility. Controlled via mobile app and joystick, it offers intuitive, immersive flight for hobbyists and tech enthusiasts. Key features: flapping-wing propulsion, portable design, stable control, and nature-inspired flight experience.
The Swift is the result of over 50 years of flight research, starting with the first mechanical flying bird in the 1960s: TIM Bird.
After successfully crowdfunding Bionic Bird in 2014 (and delivering to backers in just 3 weeks), we’re now introducing our most advanced ornithopter yet: The Swift.
Backed by 1,280+ supporters on Kickstarter, it’s now live on Indiegogo.
Happy to answer any questions or dive deeper into the project.
