Researchers from MIT and NASA have developed an airplane wing that can change shape and increase flight efficiency.
On a traditional airplane wing, only parts of the wing, like flaps and ailerons, can move to change the plane's direction.Since the wing could adjust to the particular characteristics of each stage of flight , it could perform better than traditional wings.
The wing is made of hundreds of small, identical pieces that contain both rigid and flexible components which make it lighter and more efficient than traditional airplane wings. Since the wing could adjust to the particular characteristics of each stage of flight , it could perform better than traditional wings, which are not designed to maximize performance during any part of a flight.
