Fast-rotating drone 'Phantom Twist' uses motion blur for optical camouflage (heise.de)

• 'Phantom Twist' rotates at 25 rps, uses motion blur for camouflage.
• AI optimized 20,000 configurations; only hover mode possible.
• Tenfold reduction in visibility compared to standard drones per study.

"Researchers at Northwestern University have developed the 'Phantom Twist' drone, which rotates at 25 revolutions per second, making it nearly invisible to the human eye through motion blur. The design was AI-optimized from 20,000 configurations, but the drone can currently only hover and is not steerable."
