Crawling and Jumping Soft Robots - 立命館大学
In this research, we will develop a robot capable of rough terrain locomotion by its rolling and jumping. A robot consisting of deformable soft body and flexible actuators can roll and jump on a ground by the deformation of its deformable body.
As jumping is an effective method of moving over rough terrain, there is much interest in building robots that can jump. Deformation of a soft robot’s body is an effective method to induce jumping. Our aim was to develop a jumping robot by deformation of a circular shell made of spring steel to result in the highest jump.
