UTact: Underwater Vision‐Based Tactile Sensor with Geometry Reconstruction and Contact Force Estimation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Embedded flexible sensing technologies advance underwater soft robotics, yet most systems still suffer from hysteresis and limited perceptiveness. Instead, vision‐based tactile sensors provide reliable and rapid feedback essential for complex underwater tasks.

Multidirectional Motion Strategy of Miniature Water Surface Robot Actuated by Single Exciter

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A novel multidirectional motion strategy on the water surface based on a single exciter is proposed, and a single‐exciter single‐plate module is developed for actuation. The driving forces generation mechanism of the module is revealed from the perspective of the asymmetric surface wave field.

Identifying Physical Interactions in Contact‐Based Robot Manipulation for Learning from Demonstration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots can learn manipulation tasks from human demonstrations. This work proposes a versatile method to identify the physical interactions that occur in a demonstration, such as sequences of different contacts and interactions with mechanical constraints.

Gait Analysis of Quadruped Robot Using the Equivalent Mechanism Concept Based on Metamorphosis

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2019
The previous research regarding the gait planning of quadruped robot focuses on the sequence for lifting off and placing the feet, but neglects the influence of body height. However, body height affects gait performance significantly, such as in terms of

Walking Humanoids for Robotics Research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present three humanoid robots aimed as platforms for research in robotics, and cognitive development in robotics systems. The 'priscilla' robot is a 180cm full scale humanoid, and the mid-size prototype is called 'elvis' and is about 70cm tall.

Kinematics Analysis and Parameter Optimization of a Novel 3T1R Parallel Robot Mechanism

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2021
Based on the design theory of position and orientation characteristic set, a kind of parallel robot mechanism is proposed, whose moving platform can realize three translations and one rotation. According to the orientation characteristic equation, the topological structure of the mechanism is analyzed, and the kinematics equation model is established ...

Multimodal Locomotion in Insect‐Inspired Microrobots: A Review of Strategies for Aerial, Surface, Aquatic, and Interfacial Motion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Asymmetry in Skipping Enhances Viability Against Control Input Noise

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Quadruped animals use asymmetric galloping gaits at high speeds, yet the functional role of this asymmetry remains unclear. This study shows that left–right asymmetry in touchdown angles enhances robustness to control noise. Using a simple two‐legged locomotion model and viability theory, it demonstrates that asymmetric skipping substantially enlarges ...

Development of an anthropomorphic robot finger : mechanical and kinematic aspects

open access: yes, 2006
In this work, we report on the mechanical design and development, the kinematic analysis, and the simulation of a new dexterous robot finger. The robot finger design is based on that of the human counterpart in size, mechanical structure, and range of motion, and exhibits four distinct joint motions (one abduction/adduction or yaw motion, and three ...
