Bio-inspired robotic locomotion!
The Bio-inspired robotic locomotion challenge is coming to an end. What is Bio-inspired robotic locomotion??? It is a fairly new sub-category of bio-inspired design. It is about learning from nature and applying it to the real world engineering systems.
Currently, the students are designing, re-designing and perfecting their Bio-inspired robots in preparation for the challenge next Thursday! The challenge is to see which Bio-inspired robotic can move through a 2 meter track filled with rice the consuming the least amount of power.
Here are some of the latest designs and testing.
Collecting data using the TI-Nspire Calculator and a Vernier current meter.
This arm has an "elbow joint" and employs a rubber band as a tendon!
