Abstract:Brachiation robots mimic the locomotion of bio-primates, including continuous brachiation and ricochetal brachiation. The hand-eye coordination involved in ricochetal brachiation is complex. Few studies have integrated both continuous and ricochetal brachiation within the same robot. This study seeks to fill this gap. The proposed design mimics the transverse movements of sports climbers holding onto horizontal wall ledges. We analyzed the cause-and-effect relationship among the phases of a single locomotion c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
