Development of a Piezoelectrically-Actuated Mesoscale Robot Quadruped
This paper describes a minimalist mobile robot design approach that offers a high locomotive efficiency, and is therefore well suited to mesoscale robot design. The authors have incorporated this approach into the development of a dynamically controlled piezoelectrically actuated mesoscale robot quadruped. The design described utilizes a lightly damped skeletal structure that generates locomoti...
متن کاملUsing a Novel Wireless-Networked Decentralized Control Scheme under Unpredictable Environmental Conditions
The direction of sunshine or the installation sites of environmental control facilities in the greenhouse result in different temperature and humidity levels in the various zones of the greenhouse, and thus, the production quality of crop is inconsistent. This study proposed a wireless-networked decentralized fuzzy control scheme to regulate the environmental parameters of various culture zones...
متن کاملPassive and Self-Powered Autonomous Sensors for Remote Measurements
Autonomous sensors play a very important role in the environmental, structural, and medical fields. The use of this kind of systems can be expanded for several applications, for example in implantable devices inside the human body where it is impossible to use wires. Furthermore, they enable measurements in harsh or hermetic environments, such as under extreme heat, cold, humidity or corrosive ...
متن کاملBio-Inspired Wooden Actuators for Large Scale Applications
Implementing programmable actuation into materials and structures is a major topic in the field of smart materials. In particular the bilayer principle has been employed to develop actuators that respond to various kinds of stimuli. A multitude of small scale applications down to micrometer size have been developed, but up-scaling remains challenging due to either limitations in mechanical stif...
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...
