Ion wind technology breakthrough takes flight at SUNY Oswego

A new spin on propulsion is taking flight in a SUNY Oswego lab, leading to electrical and computer engineering faculty member Adrian Ieta and the SUNY Research Foundation pursuing a patent on this promising technology. Last year, Ieta and his students’ research achieved a first-of-its-kind flight driven by ionic wind, which could open up a new field of development. Through additional refinement, publication and presentations, the breakthrough is starting to gain momentum, which would be greatly aided by ap
