This research presents a 10-year systematic review based on bibliometric analysis of the bio-inspired design of hard-bodied mobile robot mechatronic systems considering the anatomy of arthropods. These are the most diverse group of animals whose flexible biomechanics and adaptable morphology, thus, it can inspire robot development. Papers were reviewed from two international databases (Scopus and Web of Science) and one platform (Aerospace Research Central), then they were classified according to: year of publication (January 2013 to April 2023), arthropod group, published journal, conference proceedings, editorial publisher, research teams, robot classification according to the name of arthropod, limb’s locomotion support, number of legs/arms, number of legs/body segments, limb’s degrees of freedom, mechanical actuation type, modular system, and environment adaptation. During the screening, more than 33000 works were analyzed. Finally, a total of 174 studies (90 journal-type, 84 conference-type) were selected for in-depth study: Insecta - hexapod (53,8%), Arachnida - octopods (20.7%), Crustacea - decapods (16,1%), and Myriapoda – centipedes and millipedes (9,2%). The study reveals that the most active editorials are the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., Springer, MDPI, and Elsevier, while the most influential researchers are located in the USA, China, Singapore, and Japan. Most works pertained to spiders, crabs, caterpillars, cockroaches, and centipedes. We conclude that “arthrobotics” research, which merges arthropods and robotics, is constantly growing and includes a high number of relevant studies with findings that can inspire new methods to design biomechatronic systems.

“…In nature, several animals employ the same limbs for different modes of locomotion [42]. Among these, the Cebrennus rechenbergi (cartwheel spider) has been used as inspiration for robots and mechanisms that are capable of flipping and crawling [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48]. To realize the flipping motion, we attach two DLEMs back-to-back to form an MLEM [see Fig.…”

Magnetically actuated elastomeric soft robots are capable of untethered multimodal locomotion due to their ability to adapt to environments. However, they are usually fabricated with soft materials and suffer from structural instabilities under external loads. We designed a multilayer lamina emergent mechanism (LEM) that is capable of crawling and flipping due to its highly coupled kinematics that enables the simplification of multiple joint control. Each LEM layer is designed as a parallelogram linkage that couples four legs arranged in a staggered manner, giving rise to an alternative tetrapod crawling gait with just two degrees of freedom under the influence of a changing Manuscript
