The Robustness of Tether Friction in Non-idealized Terrains
Justin J. Page, Laura K. Treers, Steven Jens Jorgensen +2
Reduced traction limits the ability of mobile robotic systems to resist or apply large external loads, such as tugging a massive payload. One simple and versatile solution is to wr…
Body Lift and Drag for a Legged Millirobot in Compliant Beam Environment
Can Koc, Cem Koc, Brian Su +2
Much current study of legged locomotion has rightly focused on foot traction forces, including on granular media. Future legged millirobots will need to go through terrain, such as…
OpenRoACH: A Durable Open-Source Hexapedal Platform with Onboard Robot Operating System (ROS)
Liyu Wang, Yuxiang Yang, Gustavo Correa +2
OpenRoACH is a 15-cm 200-gram self-contained hexapedal robot with an onboard single-board computer. To our knowledge, it is the smallest legged robot with the capability of running…
Learning Image-Conditioned Dynamics Models for Control of Under-actuated Legged Millirobots
Anusha Nagabandi, Guangzhao Yang, Thomas Asmar +4
Millirobots are a promising robotic platform for many applications due to their small size and low manufacturing costs. Legged millirobots, in particular, can provide increased mob…
