A Miniature 7g Jumping Robot [PDF]
2008 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2008 Jumping can be a very efficient mode of locomotion for small robots to overcome large obstacles and travel in natural, rough terrain. In this paper we present the development and characterization of a novel 5 cm, 7g jumping robot. It can jump obstacles more than 27 times its own size and outperforms existing jumping robots by one order of magnitude ...

Omnidirectional Jump of a Legged Robot Based on the Behavior Mechanism of a Jumping Spider
Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2018 To find a common approach for the development of an efficient system that is able to achieve an omnidirectional jump, a jumping kinematic of a legged robot is proposed based on the behavior mechanism of a jumping spider.

Crawling and Jumping by a Deformable Robot
The International Journal of Robotics Research, 2006We describe crawling and jumping by a soft robot. Locomotion over rough terrain has been achieved mainly by rigid body systems including crawlers and leg mechanisms. This paper presents an alternative method, one that employs deformation. First, we describe the principle of crawling and jumping as performed through deformation of a robot body.

Elevation control of a soft jumping robot
2021 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2021Jumping with controllable elevation is significant for insect-scale robots to improve terrain adaptability and to escape from risks. However, jumping robots based on soft materials with low stiffness cannot transmit displacement precisely, exhibiting poor control of jumping.

REBOund: Untethered Origami Jumping Robot with Controllable Jump Height
2020 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2020Origami robots are well-suited for jumping maneuvers because of their light weight and ability to incorporate actuation and control strategies directly into the robot body. However, existing origami robots often model fold patterns as rigidly foldable and fail to take advantage of deformation in an origami sheet for potential energy storage.

2006 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2006
This video demonstrates a one-legged robot which moves by repeating jumps. The motions having flight phases such as jumping or running are expected to expand the speed and stability of legged robots. A novel method of determining the Center of Mass (COM) and foot locations is proposed that is independent of the target robot actuators or assignments of ...

A locust-inspired miniature jumping robot
Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2015Unmanned ground vehicles are mostly wheeled, tracked, or legged. These locomotion mechanisms have a limited ability to traverse rough terrain and obstacles that are higher than the robot's center of mass. In order to improve the mobility of small robots it is necessary to expand the variety of their motion gaits. Jumping is one of nature's solutions to

Locust-inspired jumping robot with the initial jumping posture control
2016 IEEE International Conference on Real-time Computing and Robotics (RCAR), 2016To improve the jumping performance, this paper presents a locust-inspired jumping robot with initial body posture adjustment and self-righting mechanisms. A segmental gear, stretching and triggering the spring for storage and rapid release of energy, is used for the jumping mechanism.

Insect-inspired jumping robots: challenges and solutions to jump stability
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2020Some insects can jump to heights that are several times their body length. At smaller scales, jumping mechanisms are constrained by issues relating to scaling of power generation, which insects have resolved over the course of their evolution. These solutions have inspired the design of small jumping robots.

Optimal Jumps for Biarticular Legged Robots
2008 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2008This paper investigates the extent to which biarticular actuation mechanisms-antagonistic actuation schemes with spring stiffness that extend over two joints, similar in function to biarticular muscles found in legged animals-improve the performance of jumping and other fast explosive robot movements.
