Experimental set-up and flight path. The bats flew in a 4.5 x 5.5 x 2.5-m flight room equipped with 20 tracking cameras and 46 ultrasonic microphones spread around the circumference of the room. In each trial, the bat would fly in search of a small foam spherical landing platform, land on it, and retrieve a mealworm from the top. We tracked the bats movement including its center of mass and wing position and its echolocation throughout the search phase. The image shows a single search and landing event, both in a top view (showing changes in curvature) and a side view (showing changes in altitude)
