Moths use hundreds of strain sensors (campaniform sensilla) on each wing to quickly respond to perturbations that may otherwise destabilize the moth during flight. A similar sensing approach could help stabilize micro-aerial vehicles (MAVs), but large sensor arrays are challenging due to the wiring and large latency that exists when capturing data from many traditional strain sensors. This work in...
