自分も六本脚ロボットで歩行距離を計測しました。1回の動作で約20cm進み、平均速度は0.05m/sでしたが、ボール形態での移動速度は4倍速くなりました。

Hehe, that's cute. Of course, there's no real-world use case for it, but for development, research, and inspiration, it's definitely one of the best robots out there right now.

At first glance, it looks complicated. The engineering idea is surprisingly elegant. 🤖 The Tripteron robot uses a unique parallel kinematic design to achieve fast, precise movement with a relatively simple mechanical architecture. Unlike traditional robotic arms, the motion is generated through coordinated linear axes, allowing the end effector to move efficiently through 3D space. 🎥 Media: Zaber Technologies ⚠️ This content is shared for informational purposes only.

No endless calculations. No constant adjustments. Just intelligent design inspired by nature. This highlights a lesson robotics keeps relearning: Nature has already solved many of the problems engineers are trying to crack. The future of robotics may not come from more computing power.

The line between “garage project” and “advanced robotics lab” is starting to blur.

Unlike traditional Cartesian gantries, all three actuators move in parallel, allowing the system to maintain a lightweight moving platform while covering a large workspace. Why does that matter? • High-speed, precise motion • Reduced moving mass • Excellent stiffness and repeatability • Scalable travel for large work areas These characteristics make parallel mechanisms like the Tripteron promising for applications such as industrial automation, high-speed pick-and-place systems, large-format 3D printing, precision manufacturing, and advanced inspection.

All right, who wants a robot worm? 🪱 Researchers at Case Western Reserve University developed a robot inspired by earthworms. Worms move by using wave-like muscle contractions called peristalsis. This version of the worm-inspired robot has a flexible outer mesh that can continuously change shape. Using this mesh, the robot's fixed parts can move smoothly between each other, providing power and control. This project is referred to as a "soft hyper-redundant robot," due to its highly flexible nature and ability to adapt to various environments. This design could prove useful in scenarios where traditional rigid robots struggle, such as navigating tight spaces or uneven terrain. Please let me know what your thoughts are! 👀 🔔 Hit the bell on my profile to never miss a robot story!

One smartphone at the core of a robot. The idea is simple but interesting: use a used smartphone as the main controller for a hobby robot, in this case a hexapod. Instead of adding separate boards and sensors, the phone already brings a lot of what robots need: - IMU and environmental sensors - WiFi, Bluetooth, and cellular connectivity - Multiple cameras and GPS - Battery, display, GPU, and a fairly powerful processor All of this is already calibrated and supported by mature software tools and frameworks. What makes this approach worth looking at is not just convenience. It also reuses hardware that would otherwise end up as e-waste. Billions of smartphones are discarded every year. Nice example of leveraging existing consumer hardware for robotics. Project by Mehdi Alizadeh from YouTube: —- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:
