Students 3D print #drone that can #swim #underwater and #fly through the air — 'variable-pitch propeller system' paves way for #amphibious breakthrough
The drone seamlessly jumps between flight and aquatic mode as needed. The duo released a video showing off what it's capable of, and in it, we see the drone flying above a pool before crashing into the water's surface. It then moves about the pool before reemerging to fly in the air again.

Bestes Transportmittel im Zürich im Sommer:
Very brisk day for a swim. Southerly was nippy. Had the pool totally to myself for most of the half hour. Water coming over the back wall which was lovely - waves of warmer open ocean water. #ocean #swim #MerewetherBaths #NewcastleNSW #NewcastleAU
Back in the change rooms post-swim, one of the other swimmers told me she'd seen a big octopus in the lap lanes today so went back for a look. Couldn't spot it so it must be well camouflaged. #ocean #swim #MerewetherBaths #NewcastleNSW #NewcastleAU
