Existing polar robots are constrained by limited energy supply, making it difficult to carry out long-term scientific exploration missions, which highlights an urgent demand for energy conservation. An energy-efficient multi-mode motion polar robot is proposed to address this challenge. Both increas…
This letter addresses real-time obstacle avoidance and precision manipulation in on-orbit cable disassembly tasks involving flexible, vibrating cables. We propose a control framework that combines dynamic sphere envelopes with a Steering Force Field enhanced Dynamic Movement Primitive (SFF-DMP) form
Flippers are important components for improving the locomotion efficiency and stability of bionic underwater robots. A novel origami-based adaptive flipper is presented to address a lack of environmental adaptability and low performance efficiency due to the structural design or inherent characteris
Inimitation learning, it is often assumed the demonstration data are optimal, even though they are imperfect in practice. The imperfect demonstrations result from expert errors, large-scale demonstration data, and the non-convexity of the solution space of the task. In this letter, we propose a new
The amazing ability of water striders on water surface has attracted many scholars. Especially the flexible driving mechanism enable the driving legs conform to the deformation of the water surface, which effectively improving water striders’ floating ability and stability. However, the current rese…
Aiming at mimicking water strider's water-surface locomotion, this study proposes a new miniature surface tension-driven robot. A key feature of this robot is that its actuating legs possess ellipse-like spatial trajectories like water strider by using a cam-link mechanism, and never pierces water s…
