Development of Fish-like Swimming Behaviours for an Autonomous Robotic Fish
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a modular approach to decompose the fish movement into several basic behaviours, namely straight cruise, cruise in turn and sharp turn, to mimic carangiform swimming of a real fish. To test these behaviours, a robotic fish is designed and built at Essex. It has 6 joints (R/C servo motors) and controlled by an efficiency control method. The experimental results show its feasibility and good performance.

متن کاملBiological Inspiration: From Carangiform Fish to Multi-Joint Robotic Fish
This paper presents a novel approach to modelling carangiform fish-like swimming motion for multi-joint robotic fish so that they can obtain fish-like behaviours and mimic the body motion of carangiform fish. A given body motion function of fish swimming is firstly converted to a tail motion function which describes the tail motion relative to the head. Then, the tail motion function is discret...
