Proceedings ArticleDOI
Development of flexible microactuator and its applications to robotic mechanisms
TL;DR: A flexible microactuator driven by an electropneumatic (or electrohydraulic) system has been developed that has three degrees of freedom, pitch, yaw, and stretch, and are suitable movements for miniature robotic mechanisms such as fingers, arms, or legs.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Bending Pneumatic Rubber Actuator Realizing Soft-bodied Manta Swimming Robot
TL;DR: A new design and prototyping method for a bending pneumatic rubber actuator and its application to a soft-bodied manta swimming robot and the experimental results show that good agreement with those of analytical results is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Applying a flexible microactuator to robotic mechanisms
TL;DR: A flexible microactuator (FMA) driven by an electropneumatic (or electrohydraulic) system has been developed in this paper, with three degrees of freedom-pitch, yaw, and stretch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micro inspection robot for 1-in pipes
TL;DR: In this paper, a micro inspection robot for 1-in-pipes has been developed, which is equipped with a high-quality micro charge-coupled device (CCD) camera and a dual hand for manipulating small objects in pipes.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Flexible microactuator for miniature robots
TL;DR: In this article, a flexible microactuator (FMA) was developed for use in miniature robots, which can be constructed using fiber-reinforced rubber and actuated by an electropneumatic or electrohydraulic system.
