Energy Storage: The crossbow stores energy in a stretched rubber band or bowstring. Why? Because it's a mechanical marvel that's simpler than lithium batteries and older than the wheel. When the bowstring is released, this stored (potential) energy is converted into kinetic energy of the projectile (among other things). The amount of energy stored in a bow can be calculated by plotting it"s. . This paper introduces a launch method based on the crossbow principle, which is capable of concealing the deployment of heavy sensors. Given that the size and mass of the launcher on the UAV should be minimized, optimizing the structural energy storage performance of the launcher is essential. They offer significant advantages in terms of efficiency, 3.
