Scholar-generated biography
Elizabeth Farrell Helbling is an Assistant Professor at Cornell University specializing in Robotics, MAV (Micro Aerial Vehicles), Controls, and Power. Her research focuses on the development of small-scale aerial robots, particularly insect-sized flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles (MAVs), with an emphasis on propulsion, power, and control systems. She explores autonomous flight, hybrid aerial-aquatic locomotion, and the integration of soft actuators for microrobots. Her work includes the design of power electronics units, attitude stabilization, and flight control in dynamic environments such as wind gusts. Helbling's research bridges robotics and biology, aiming to create agile, energy-efficient microrobots inspired by insect flight mechanics.
