MorphoBall: A Bio-Inspired Transformable Spherical Robot with Dual Terrestrial Gaits and Surface Swimming Capability

MorphoBall is a bio-inspired, deformable spherical robot designed for multimodal locomotion across terrestrial and aquatic environments. By integrating a dual-mode drive system (spherical rolling and differential-drive) with a morphology-mediated propulsion mechanism, MorphoBall achieves adaptive mo…
