PI, a global leader in precision motion control and nanopositioning, debuted a new innovative high-bandwidth lever-hexapod ...

Hexapod multi-axis motion and positioning platforms have been around for several decades. Initially used for exotic applications, these six-legged parallel-kinematic machines are now becoming popular ...

The robot’s body, controlling board, sensors and actuators were installed for the first part, while a developed program, consequently, was operated in the later part for the robot’s movement.

Hexapod motion systems are the most versatile multi-axis positioning systems, also called Stewart Platforms, for industrial, research, and medical applications. A traditional hexapod parallel ...

Each robot has an on-board microcontroller in which engineers programmed a sequence of electrically controlled motions for the actuators. This allows the robots to move independently.

The paper, “Integrated Design and Fabrication of Pneumatic Soft Robot Actuators in a Single Casting Step” was published in the journal Cyborg and Bionic Systems on Jul 17, 2024, at DOI: 10. ...

Proving the actuator's explosive capabilities, they made the robot jump an impressive 56 cm (1.8 ft) in the air, and they demonstrated that it could move on a variety of different solid, high and ...

What’s more awesome than a normal hexapod robot? What about a MEGA hexapod? Max the Megapod, a six-legged 3D-printed walking robot, is an open source, Arduino-based, Bluetooth controlled, Scr… ...
