Integrating the reinforcement learning and the group behavior evolution simulating the human's learning and evolution, the autonomous micro mobile robot will automatically generate the suited actions satisfied the environment. However, the designer only devises some basic behaviors, which decreases the workload of the designer and cognitive deficiency of the robot to the environment. The results of simulation have shown that the architecture endows micro robot with the ability of learning, adaptation and robustness, also with the ability of accomplishing the given task.展开更多

The EOA consists of a yoke, a magnet, and a coil. The overall robot size is 12.2 mm x 11 mm x 9 mm (length x height ~ width). The locomotion of the robot is achieved by different amounts of slips when the robot stretches and contracts its front leg. To realize locomotion, the working conditions were calculated theoretically and the calculated input signal was applied to the robot. The performance of the inchworm robot was evaluated experimentally with varying input voltages and frequencies. A simple op-amps based driving circuit was used to provide a square-wave input. Travel speed, average distance per step of the robot, and moving distance of the leg and body at each step were measured. The maximum travel speed was 36 mm-s-1 at 30 Hz, which validates our simple locomotion strategy experimentally.展开更多
