Here is an origami inspired robotic arm that can be used with UAVs to pick up and move things. As SNU BioRobotics Lab explains, adding a robotic manipulator to drones is not always straightforward due to payload limits and size. This foldable robotic arm has a lightweight design and returns to its original shape during take-off and landing.
