Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the collection, post-processing and subsequent evaluation of flight data of butterflies, in various free flight scenarios. The flight data is obtained by means of a vision tracking system; from which estimates of the motion of different body parts, including the head, abdomen and wings are then determined. These estimates are subsequently post-processed with a view to examining the mathematical correlations that exist between motion of individual body parts of the butterfly with its overall flight trajectory. Preliminary results performing a comparison of different takeoff sequences, are then presented.
