Robotic prototypes are gradually gaining more academic and research traction, while robots are becoming a more common encounter within the human social trusted cycles. Generally, in the fields of Robotics - besides the mandatory high standards of safety - engineers are keen to build their concepts with an intuitive, natural-like motion and characte...

... more. From Line 25 in the code, it begins the setup of the connection between Arduino and servo motors via the driving shield. The default baud rate to transmit the commands to the servos is 1 Mbps, set by command dxl.begin(1000000). In the main loop, in the code lines 40-42, the speed of each of the three servo motors is set to a value of 70 (Fig. 7). The function used, setGoalVelocity(), can take raw data, rpm or percentage values; in this case, it is set to a raw value, and it can go up to ...

Building humanoid robots with properties similar to those of humans in terms of strength and agility is a great and unsolved challenge. This work introduces a compact and lightweight wrist joint mechanism that is singularity-free and has large range of motion. The mechanism provides two degrees of freedom (DoF) and was developed for integration int...

... This paper will cover the first stage in the development of the jumping robot, exploring different design and motion mechanisms, sensors, and controlling techniques with data gathering and interpretation and how it can achieve a balanced position. This work will also take inspiration from the previous design of other robotics arms developed in the lab [13,14]. In particular, we aim to design and prototype a monoped robot whose design is biologically inspired by current literature and effective natural design. ...

The development of lightweight, agile robots built with a high degree of efficiency and precision is a complex and particularly challenging task. In Robotics, the perspectives of such systems have the potential to reimagine and reevaluate space and planetary explorations while enhancing the human ability to reach and analyze different environments. This research evaluates ways to build a single-leg robot capable of self-balancing on any terrain with the prospect of omnidirectional saltation steering. This report will go through the process of designing a 1-degree of freedom, balanced robot while evaluating various hardware options in motion control and data feedback. Based on these research findings, this paper will also discuss the difficulties and issues encountered and the approach to solving them.
