"Conformable Inflatable Wings Woven Using a Jacquard Technique"

I find this very interesting and innovative. But, the wings produced don’t seem very aerodynamically effective.

I think maybe take a step back to consider 3D inflated foils with internal structures. I am unsure if Jaquard weaving is the main takeaway here.

There was a company showing drop stiched kites at AWEC 2021.
