Dual Drive for Vertical Movement of Resonance Hopping Robot

In the present study vertical movements of resonance hopping robot of special construction with one leg and dual drive are considered. The construction of hopping robot with compensation of losses during flight of the robot allows employing a simple control system and having a stable regime of its operation so that the robot has self-property to maintain a specified height of jumping. The data on dynamical calculation, simulations and experimental testing are discussed. The solution of the problem of actuator’s optimum parameters choice (including variable transmission ratio) for the considered robot is presented.В настоящей работе рассматриваются вертикальные движения резонансного прыгающего робота специальной конструкции с одной ногой и приводом с изменяемыми свойствами. Конструкция робота предусматривает, что компенсация потерь энергии производится в фазе полета. Это дает возможность использовать простую систему управления и позволяет стабилизировать рабочий режим за счет того, что робот имеет естественную самостабилизацию заданной высоты прыжков. Обсуждаются результаты расчетов, моделирования и экспериментов. Для рассматриваемого робота представлено решение задачи выбора оптимальных параметров, включая параметры привода с изменяемыми свойствами

On the Design and Development of Climbing and Walking Robots for the Maritime Industries

Modern robotic systems are increasingly powerful in terms of sensor fusion and mobility. Present technological progress allows advanced robots to cope progressively much better also with complex environments such as those which are frequently found in the maritime industries. An overview of the development of mobile robots (climbing and walking) is presented with examples taken from some research projects carried out by the Industrial Automation Institute of the Spanish Council for Scientific Research.Modern robotic systems are increasingly powerful in terms of sensor fusion and mobility.
