North Carolina State University Publishes Research on Mechanically Intelligent Soft Swimming Robot
1 reports · 1 sources
A team at North Carolina State University in the United States published in Science Advances a "mechanically intelligent" soft swimming robot: it carries no microcomputer and does not rely on real-time algorithms; using only two air tubes to control inflation and deflation, it can switch among three swimming modes—jellyfish, fish, and rotor—and perform actions such as ascending, descending, hovering, and turning. The robot's control logic is entirely borne by its materials and structure, and the related results have been published in Science Advances.
