AbstractThis project develops a critical technological capability that does not currently exist — the ability to accurately deploy a large number of sensors to otherwise inaccessible locations from aerial platforms. Specifically, it creates fully functional, battery-free microfliers that communicate with each other to self-organize and coordinate their descent, enabling precise deployment of wireless sensor networks over large spatial scales. Such microfliers could be transformative for large-scale dist
