Simulation and Optimization For Inchworm Like-Robot Locomotion
The intent of this work was to develop an optimized design for inchworm locomotion. Different works found in the literature imitate inchworm locomotion using different methods in order to grip the surface of the ground such as pads, magnets or wheels. On the other hand, this inchworm like-robot uses controlled friction by changing water between the end bodies. This water, moved by a miniature p...
متن کاملThe Inchworm Robot: A Multi-Functional System
We wish for robots to manipulate objects and move flexibly in three-dimensional spaces. We describe a robot that can move on a web of surfaces oriented around arbitrary directions in three-space and a set of control algorithms that implements motion in three-dimensions. The robot can manipulate objects in three dimensions while moving, by using the same set of physical resources and control alg...
متن کاملNavigating 3D steel web structures with an inchworm robot
We wish to navigate across complicated three-dimensional structures. We describe a robot that can propel itself on a web of surfaces oriented around arbitrary directions in three-space. This robot is an inchworm-like robot with a simple, modular, and exi-ble design. We present control algorithms for the task-level skills that allow the robot to walk vertically, horizontally , and inverted, and ...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Miniature Modular Inchworm Robot
This paper presents the design and analysis of a bioinspired miniature modular Inchworm robot. Inchworm robots play crucial roles in surveillance, exploration and search and rescue operations where maneuvering in confined spaces is required. Rectilinear gaits have been demonstrated with favorable results in terms of stability and small size due to the absence of wheels and tracks; however, exhi...
متن کاملGait Generation for Inchworm-Like Robot Locomotion Using Finite State Model
The gait of a multi-segment inchworm robot is a series of actuator actions that will change the shape of the robot to generate a net motion. In this article, we model the multisegment inchworm robot as a jinite state automaton. Gait generation is posed as a search problem on the graph described by the automaton with prescribed state transitions. The state transitions are defined based on the ki...
