Bio-Inspired Tensegrity Fish Robot

Dario Floreano, Jun Shintake, Davide Zappetti, Timothée John Martin Peter, Yusuke Ikemoto

This paper presents a method to create fish-like robots with tensegrity systems and describes a prototype modeled on the body shape of the rainbow trout with a length of 400 mm and a mass of 102 g that is driven by a waterproof servomotor. The structure of ...

Multimodal pipe-climbing robot with origami clutches and soft modular legs

Jamie Paik, Frédéric Henri Vaskin Giraud, Hongying Zhang, Yongkang Jiang

In nature, climbing trees and pipes of varying diameters or even navigating inside of hollow pipes and tree holes is easy for some climbing animals and insects. However, today's pipe-climbing robots, which are important for automatically conducting periodi ...

A computer science and robotics integration model for primary school: evaluation of a large-scale in-service K-4 teacher-training program

Francesco Mondada, Frédérique Michèle Chessel-Lazzarotto, Jean-Philippe Pellet, Barbara Bruno, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy

Integrating computer science (CS) into school curricula has become a worldwide preoccupation. Therefore, we present a CS and Robotics integration model and its validation through a large-scale pilot study in the administrative region of the Canton Vaud in ...

RoboScallop: A Bivalve Inspired Swimming Robot

Jamie Paik, Matthew Aaron Robertson

Underwater swimming robots permit remote access to over 70% of the Earth's surface that is covered in water for a variety of scientific, environmental, tactical, or industrial purposes. Many practical applications for robots in this setting include sensing ...

A Dynamical System Approach to Motion and Force Generation in Contact Tasks

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Walid Amanhoud

MIT PRESS2019

In this paper, we present a novel and practical approach for benchmarking agility. We focus on terrestrial, multilegged locomotion in the field of bio-inspired robotics. We define agility as the ability to perform a set of different but specific tasks exec ...
