UC Berkeley Biomimetic Millisystems Lab Robots
.
Some of us may have heard of beam robots. If you have, then you already know that they sort of represent biological creatures. Well thats exactly how the robots at UC Berkeley are in common with beam robots. Their first robot OctaROACH has tiny little curved legs, and these legs enable it to tackle more terrane than that of a wheeled robot. Now for their second robot, BOLT Bipedal Ornithopter, it has the ability to fly quite smoothly in the air. It uses two lightweight wings, and a front leg mechanism that propels it forward. BOLT's design looks pretty similar to Wowwee's DragonFly robot. Thirdly, they have the iBird, and its a completely autonomous flying robot. It has an onboard CPU that enables it to fly without a remote control. Overall, these bots seem pretty cool and animal like! Thanks for reading and check out the video above to see the robots!
