Ilizwe le-miniaturization lisinike ithuba lokuba nezinto ezincinci zobuchwephesha ngokukhaphukhaphu, kwaye kunjalo, kusekho iinjineli ezifuna ukuya phambili, njengoko kunjalo kumacandelo e-ModLab Laboratory Yunivesithi yasePennsylvania, EUnited States, abakwaziyo ukwenza idrone ngokushicilela i-3D kuphela Isentimitha ezingama-3,5.
Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo iprojekthi entsha ebonisa amandla amakhulu kunye nezinto ezinokubakho kwitekhnoloji enje ngokushicilela i-3D. Njengoko abo banoxanduva lweprojekthi bepapashile, le drone, ibhaptizwa ngabo njenge I-Picolissimo, idweliswe njengeyona drone incinci emhlabeni.
I-Picolissimo, eyona drone incinci emhlabeni.
Ukuya kwiinkcukacha ezithe kratya, akufuneki simise kuphela kubungakanani bayo beesentimitha ezi-3,5 kuphela, kodwa ikwanobunzima kuphela I-2,5 gram. Ukufezekisa ezi ndawo ziphakamileyo, umzimba kuye kwafuneka uyile onokwenziwa kuphela kusetyenziswa ukuprinta kwe-3D okoko, njengoko iinjineli zisitsho, ukulandela ubuchwephesha bendabuko bekungenakwenzeka, ngenxa yeendleko eziphezulu, ukwenza le projekthi.
Ngaphakathi kulo mzimba mncinci wenziwe ngokushicilelwa kwe3D sifumana ePicolissimo iphephela encinci esebenza njengepropeller. Ezi zinto zimbini zenzelwe ukujikeleza kumacala ahlukeneyo ngesantya esahlukileyo, ngakumbi umzimba ujikeleza ku-40 uvukelo ngomzuzwana ngelixa i-propeller isenza njalo kwi-800 revolutions ngomzuzwana. Ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, isampulu entsha yeetekhnoloji ezimbini ezinokuyila njengoko zinokudala ukuba abaqulunqi baya kukhupha bonke ubuchule babo.
