Design and Energetic Characterization of a Liquid-Propellant-Powered Actuator for Self-Powered Robots
This paper describes the design of a power supply and actuation system appropriate for position or force controlled human-scale robots. The proposed approach utilizes a liquid monopropellant to generate hot gas, which is utilized to power a pneumatic-type actuation system. A prototype of the actuation system is described, and closed-loop tracking data are shown, which demonstrate good motion co...
متن کاملThe Design and Modeling of a Liquid-propellant-powered Actuator for Energetically Autonomous Robots
This paper describes the design of a liquid-propellant-powered hot-gas actuator appropriate for human-scale powerautonomous robots. The motivation for this work is the development of a lightweight actuation system with system energy and power densities significantly greater than a DC motor and battery combination. The proposed design of a liquid-fueled actuator is presented, followed by a therm...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Hot Gas Actuator for Self-Powered Robots
This paper describes the design of a liquid-propellantpowered hot-gas actuator appropriate for human-scale power-autonomous robots. A prototype of the actuation system is described, and closed-loop tracking data is shown that demonstrates good motion control. Experiments to characterize the energetic performance of the actuation system indicate that the proposed system with a diluted propellant...
متن کاملDesign of a Self-Powered Wireless Transmitter
This paper deals on converting mechanical impact on piezoelectric plate into electrical energy and using this harvested energy to power a wireless sensor node (WSN). Here we discuss on the power processing unit which consists of rectification, storage and regulation of voltage. The wireless sensor node senses the ambient vibrations around it and uses the harvested energy to send unique identifi...
