This paper describes the inspiration for, design, analysis, and implementation of, and
experimentation with the first dynamical vertical climbing robot. Biologists have proposed a …

The interest in the development of climbing robots has grown rapidly in the last years.
Climbing robots are useful devices that can be adopted in a variety of applications, such as …

We present self-lifting artificial insect wings by means of electrostatic actuation for the first
time. Excited by a DC power source, biomimetic flapping motions have been generated to lift …

This paper presents a climbing robot with wheeled locomotion and adhesion through
permanent magnets, developed with the intention of being used in the inspection of different …

This paper addresses the kinematics modeling and control of a novel nonholonomic wheel-
based pole climbing robot called UT-PCR. This robot belongs to a challenging and less …

Purpose–Wall climbing robots' volume is needed to be very small in fields that workspace is
limited, such as anti‐terror scouting, industry pipe network inspecting and so on. The …

The ParkourBot climbs in a planar reduced-gravity vertical chute by leaping back and forth
between the chute's two parallel walls. The ParkourBot is comprised of a body with two …

The ParkourBot is an efficient and dynamic climbing robot. The robot comprises two springy
legs connected to a body. Leg angle and spring tension are independently controlled. The …

This paper investigates a novel mechanism, called DSAC for Dynamic, Single Actuated
Climber, which propels itself upwards by oscillating its leg in a symmetric fashion using a …

This video shows the investigation of a novel minimalistic, dynamic climbing robot which can
climb up tubes of different shapes using a simple dc motor. The motor moves an eccentric …
