Steerable miniature jumping robot
Jumping is used in nature by many small animals to locomote in cluttered environments or in rough terrain. It offers small systems the benefit of overcoming relatively large obstacles at a low energetic cost. In order to be able to perform repetitive jumps in a given direction, it is important to be able to upright after landing, steer and jump again. In this article, we review and evaluate the...
متن کاملA Miniature Jumping Robot with Flea-inspired Catapult System: Active Latch and Trigger
Small creatures have inherent mobility problems due to their stride limitation and small body size compared to surroundings. Meanwhile, some of them, such as locusts and fleas, have evolved to acquire better mobility by employing saltatorial (jumping) locomotion. In the similar context, the mobility of small-scale robots can be improved by jumping. To date, several small-scale jumping robots ha...
متن کاملAutonomous Jumping Micro - Robot
Title of Document: Novel Integrated System Architecture for an Autonomous Jumping Micro-Robot Wayne A. Churaman, M.S., 2010 Directed By: Dr. Neil Goldsman, ECE ; Dr. Sarah Bergbreiter, ME As the capability and complexity of robotic platforms continue to evolve from the macro to micro-scale, innovation of such systems is driven by the notion that a robot must be able to sense, think, and act [1]...
متن کاملCrawling and Jumping by a Deformable Robot
We describe crawling and jumping by a deformable robot. Locomotion over rough terrain has been achieved mainly by rigid body systems including crawlers and leg mechanisms. This paper presents an alternative method of moving over rough terrain, one that employs deformation. First, we describe the principle of crawling and jumping as performed through deformation of a robot body. Second, in a phy...
متن کاملSearching with Advice: Robot Fence-Jumping
We study a new search problem on the plane involving a robot and an immobile treasure, initially placed at distance 1 from each other. The length β of an arc (a fence) within the perimeter of the corresponding circle, as well as the promise that the treasure is outside the fence, is given as part of the input. The goal is to device movement trajectories so that the robot locates the treasure in...
