从蜥蜴到跳跃机器人由美国加州大学柏克莱分校生物学家和工程师组成的研究团队发现,蜥蜴在跳跃过程中能够通过摆动尾巴在空中保持平衡而安全着陆,即使在滑倒和绊倒时也能成功,避免因为前移距离控制不当而与树相撞(图一)。从蜥蜴尾巴获得灵感,科学家们发明了一款名叫“Tailbot”的跳跃机器人。它在跳起来之后,总能保持正确的落地姿势。如果是以头朝上脚向下从空中落下, From lizards to jumping robots A team of biologists and engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, found that lizards can safely land by swinging their tails in balance during the jump, even when slipping and stalking Success can be avoided by colliding with the tree due to improperly controlled forward travel (Figure 1). Inspired by lizard tail, scientists invented a jumping robot named “Tailbot”. After it jumped up, it always maintained the correct landing posture. If it is head-up down from the sky,
