Aerodynamics of animal flight can be studied by several approaches. The use of wind tunnels for animal flight experiments is extremely appealing, because it enables the researcher to observe the flying animal while it is flying in the test section. Thereby, high-speed video cameras can register details of the wing motions, accelerations of the body and wake vorticity can be visualized.
The wind tunnel is used in the following projects:

• Bat flight
  
• Flight performance in damselflies
• Swift flight
