Development of Experimental Fish Robot
نویسنده
چکیده
Underwater robots are widely used in the fields of ocean development, ocean investigation and marine environmental protection. They need higher efficient of propulsive performance. In order to get an underwater robot with high propulsion efficiency, we have studied on a fishlike swimming mechanism and developed a prototype fish robot. It has about 600 mm body length, and three joints of a tail moved by two servomotors with an original link mechanism. It can simulate various moving patterns optionally. In this paper, experimental results of swimming speed measurements using two types of a tail fin are reported. Also, research areas needed for getting higher performance fish robots are discussed.

This paper presents simplified hydrodynamics model for a biomimetic robot fish based on quantitative morphological and kinematic parameters of crangiform fish. The motion of four Pangasius sanitwongsei with different length and swimming speed were recorded by the digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) and image processing methods and optimal coefficients of the motion equations and appropria...

Blinking and eye movement are one of the most important abilities that most people have, even people with spinal cord problem. By using this ability these people could handle some of their activities such as moving their wheelchair without the help of others. One of the most important fields in Human-Robot Interaction is the development of artificial limbs working with brain signals. The purpos...
متن کاملDevelopment of Fish-like Swimming Behaviours for an Autonomous Robotic Fish
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...

Design, modeling, manufacturing and experimental analysis of a six degree freedom robot, suitable for industrial applications, has been described in this paper. The robot was designed on the assumption that, each joint has an independent DC motor actuator, with gear reduction and measuring sensor for angular joint position. Mechanical design of the robot was done using Mechanical Desktop and ma...
