This is Morphy: a clever drone with sensorized flexible joints in its arms that make it resilient against collisions at high speeds. It can also squeeze through openings. This drone has 3D Hall-effect sensors. This drone weighs only 260g. It has a camera, battery, TOF sensor, and a 8-core processor.

The frame is made with elastic resin printing. As the above video shows, this robot can squeeze through a vertical wedge.
