クロールは、かねてからどのような泳法が最速なのかという ... しかし体調やコンディションに左右される人間の動作の再現性に問題があった。 ロボットを用いると、微妙な動作の違いによる推進力の変化をとらえることが可能となり、泳ぎのメカニズム ...

In this work, we develop a small-scale locust-inspired robot (LocustBot) that can not only jump and glide but also crawl. We propose a coordinately actuated mechanism that allows LocustBot to perform ...

Researchers have created a moving origami ‘Robotapillar’ that could be used in everything from medicine to aerospace. This soft robot can help us study nature and other environments where hard ...

The wheel is a revolutionary invention — as they say — but going back to basics sometimes opens new pathways. Robots that traverse terrain on legs are on the rise, most notably the Boston ...
