WindShaper

When wind goes digital

Examples of WindShaper configurations

Limitless possibilities

We aim to create new innovation opportunities for researchers.

Drone

Testing drones in free flight.

Testing stability in strong wind, gusts or turbulence.

Investigating in-flight failure response.

One design, endless configurations.

The WindShaper is a modular wind generator that can be configured to meet various research needs. From the tiny and agile table-top WindShaper to large-scale research facilites.
