Once working at heights is dangerous, it is a significant accident. These accidents brought
substantial economic losses and caused a large number of casualties. Therefore, it is …

Climbing robots are designed to conduct tasks that may be dangerous for humans working
at height. In addition to improving safety, they can also increase task efficiency and reduce …

This paper presents a unique design concept, dynamic modeling, and control strategies for
efficient coverage path planning of a glass façade cleaning robot (GFCR). The robot design …

In this study, we proposed an origami pump actuator based pneumatic quadruped robot
(OPARO). The robot was constructed with a four-leg system controlled by only two motors …

Maintaining a clean living and working environment is an important means to ensure
people's quality of life. As the height of the building increases, the traditional method of …

In this paper we propose a novel adhesion method for the tracked wall-climbing robot. The
method is based on the use of the tape, which the robot affixes to the wall during its …

We present WCQR-III, an untethered bioinspired climbing robot capable of versatile
locomotion, including ground walking, wall climbing and ground-to-wall transition. Inspired …

This paper proposes a double propeller wall-climbing robot (DP-Climb) with a hybrid
adhesion system based on the biomimetic design principle to address the problems of …

Adhesion state is a key factor affecting the motion stability of a wall-climbing robot.
According to different adhesion states, there is no universal method for compliant …

Surface-to-surface transitions, vertical and inverted locomotion, and high payload capacity
are important requirements for a climbing robot. Despite many previous approaches, the …
