RA-L 2025

Manta ray-inspired robots exhibit broad application prospects. In nature, different manta rays possess different stiffness of pectoral fins to survive in specific environment. Some rays present stiffer fins that enable an oscillation, achieving large propulsion to adapt to a pelagic lifestyle. While

The Foldable Fin With Dynamic Adjustments for Manta Ray-Inspired Robots

Yang Xiang, Le Gu, Kangjie Ye, Zhenwei Zhang, Zeyu Gong, Bo Tao

RA-L 2025

Biological manta rays alter the projected area of their pectoral fins during flapping, achieve different flapping strokes to adjust dynamic generation, such as holding, rising, sinking and rolling strokes. Manta ray-inspired robots possess high motion efficiency and stability, exhibiting broad prosp
