Smart Active Winglet

Project Type: Self-Initiated

Project Description

A fixed winglet cannot maintain optimal aerodynamic efficiency across all airspeeds. We need a compact, lightweight, real-time adaptive mechanism that senses airflow, predicts the optimal cant angle, and actuates the winglet with high precision.Our goal:Reduce drag and improve aerodynamic efficiency by automatically adjusting winglet cant angle based on airspeed.
