“…The swing mechanism oscillates the fin tail, which yields ostraciiform mode swimming propulsion. Similar ostraciiform electromagnetic approaches were reported in [52] and [53]. A work that used polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as a soft material peduncle, and a flexible caudal tail was reported by [56], which resembles figure 6(d).…”

Researchers have developed numerous artificial fish to mimic the swimming abilities of biological species and understand their biomechanical subaquatic skills. The motivation arises from the interest to gain deeper comprehension of the efficient nature of biological locomotion, which is the result of millions of years of evolution and adaptation. Fin-based biological species developed exceptional swimming abilities and notable performance in highly dynamic and complex subaquatic environments. Therefore, based on research by the scientific community, this mini-review concentrates on discussing the mechanical devices developed to implement the caudal propulsive segments of robotic fish. Caudal mechanisms are of considerable interest because they may be designed to control inertial and gravitational forces, as well as exerting great dynamic range in robotic fish. This manuscript provides a concise review focused on the engineering implementations of caudal mechanisms of anguilliform, subcarangiform, subcarangiform, thunniform and ostraciiform swimming modes.

“…In general, electromagnetic actuators have many advantages such as fast response, simple control law, and low manufacturing cost compared with the other actuators [4,5]. A solenoid has been widely used among electromagnetic actuators because it has a simple structure and both the direction and magnitude of the electromagnetic force can be easily controlled by changing the input current applied to the solenoid.…”

Abstract:We develop a solenoid actuator with a ferromagnetic plunger to generate both rectilinear and turning motions of a multi-segmented robot. Each segment of the miniaturized robot is actuated by a pair of solenoids, and in-phase and out-of-phase actuations of the solenoid pair cause the linear and turning motions. The theoretical analysis on the actuation force by the solenoid with the magnetic plunger is implemented based on the Biot-Savart law. The optimal design parameters of the solenoid are determined to actuate a segmented body. We manufacture the miniaturized robot consisting of two segments and a pair of solenoids. Experiments are performed to measure the linear and angular displacements of the two-segmented robot for various frictional conditions.

With the continuous development of technologies such as sensors, computers, and artificial intelligence, intelligent mobile robots with thinking, perception, and dynamics functions are widely used in military, political, and scientific research. Its development has had a significant impact on national defense, society, economy, science, and technology and has become a strategic research goal in the high-tech field of various countries. Robot positioning technology is one of the key research technologies for portable robots, and reliable posture is the key prerequisite for completing various tasks. This article aims to study the robot walking route driven by big data and the intelligent determination of real-time positioning based on cloud computing. This paper proposes an active general positioning algorithm based on real-time positioning function, which can improve the convergence speed and robustness of general positioning when different map scenes do not have clear geometric features and contain map noise. The most basic requirement for robots to perform autonomous operations is to have reliable positioning performance. The experimental results in this paper show that dynamic global positioning and adaptive behavior tracking are effective. Compared with the traditional algorithm, the improved algorithm increases the convergence speed of the global layout by 41.59%.
