C-Quad: a miniature, foldable quadruped with C-shaped compliant legs
(IEEE, 2017)C-Quad is an origami-inspired, foldable, miniature robot whose legs and body are all machined from one PET sheet each. The already famous compliant legs are modified such that they can be manufactured from a flat PET sheet ... -
Design and operation of MinIAQ: an untethered foldable miniature quadruped with individually actuated legs
(IEEE, 2017)This paper presents the design, development, and basic operation of MinIAQ, an origami-inspired, foldable, untethered, miniature quadruped robot. Instead of employing multilayer composite structures similar to most ... -
Dynamic modeling and gait analysis for miniature robots in the absence of foot placement control
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019)The study of animals and insects have led to realization that animals select their gaits, patterns of leg movement, according to speed. For proper gait planning, the legs must be controlled for proper foot placement with ... -
A framework for dynamic modeling of legged modular miniature robots with soft backbones
(Elsevier, 2021-06-29)In this work, the dynamics of ”n” legged modular miniature robots with a soft body is modeled. The dynamic formulation is obtained using Newton–Euler formulation that depends on the contact parameters and the feet closed-chain ... -
MinIAQ-II: a miniature foldable quadruped with an improved leg mechanism
(IEEE, 2018)Origami has long been renowned as a simple yet creative form of art and its folding techniques have recently inspired advances in design and fabrication of miniature robots. In this work, we present the design and fabrication ...
