Robotic Birds

    Birds are beautiful creatures. But if you work in aviation, waste management or agriculture, you know birds can be a very tough problem to deal with. That is because birds can endanger airline passenger safety by damaging aircraft, spreading disease or ruining crops.

    A Dutch company named Clear Flight Solutions has responded to these concerns by creating “Robirds” which limits bird nuisance.

    These remote controlled Robirds mimic real falcons and eagles to scare other birds. They are amazing to watch because they fly and flap their wings to stay in the air, just like a real bird.

    Their birds are 3D printed using glass fiber and nylon composite material. These lightweight materials are so strong that they can be crashed into the ground without breaking.

    The birds are painted to make them look as realistic as possible and come in two models.

    The falcon robot has a body length of 23 inches and a wingspan of 47 inches. The larger eagle is twice as long and has a wingspan of 86 inches.

    These birds are just as intimidating to birds as the real birds. After a couple of flights, the bird population understands that they are living in a dangerous situation and will take their business elsewhere.

    Clear Flight Solutions believes their mechanical birds are the only bird control system and not a bird scare system. With them they can:

  • Remove birds and heard them in the desired direction.
  • They do not scatter bird colonies.
  • They can block migrating birds.
  • Birds will not develop habituation the way they do with flashing lights, scare crows or sound emitting devices.

    They have a lasting effect by

  • creating a habitat of a bird of prey.
  • They cover large areas effectively.
  • Nesting by birds is prevented.
  • They also represent a natural method of bird control which reduces stress in birds.

 

    There are so many places where this new technology can be applied and the benefits to all will be tremendous.
