By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – New research on Robotics is the subjec t of a report. According to news originating from Marseille, France, by NewsRx c orrespondents, research stated, “The advantageous versatility of hexapod robots is often accompanied by high power consumption, while animals have evolved an en ergy efficient locomotion. However, there are a lack of methods able to compare and apply animals’ energetic optimizations to robots.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Aix-Marseille Unive rsity, “In this study, we applied our method to a full servomotor-based hexapod robot to evaluate its energetic performance. Using an existing framework based o n the laws of thermodynamics, we estimated four metrics using a dedicated test b ench and a simulated robotic leg. We analyzed the characteristics of a single le g to shape the energetic profile of the full robot to a given task. Energy savin g is improved by 10% through continuous duty factor adjustment wit h a 192% increase in power maximization. Moreover, adjusting the r obot’s velocity by the step length and associating this with gait switching, red uces the power loss by a further 10% at low-speed locomotion. Howe ver, unlike in animals, only one unique optimal operating point has been reveale d, which is a disadvantage caused by the low energetic efficiency of servomotorbased hexapods.”
