Samara: Low-cost Deployment for Environmental Sensing Using Passive Autorotation. Valdes, S., Urza, I., Pounds, P. E. I., & Singh, S. P. N. In Robotics: Science and Systems (RSS) Workshop on Bio-inspired Robotics, 2012. Paper abstract bibtex Distributed sensing offers a variety of benefits for environmental monitoring applications such as bushfire fighting. The cost and delay in distributing sensors over a large geographic area makes ad hoc aerial deployment via air-drop a compelling technology. However, the need to ruggardise sensors to survive free-fall impact, or the cost of including aerodynamic arrest devices such as parachutes for soft-landing, makes aerial deployment less viable. We present a method for constructing low-cost light-weight sensor modules that incorporate a mono-wing into the structure of the sensor PCB. This allows the sensors to autorotate to a soft-landing after release from the air, without additional processing or fabrication steps.
