By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Researchers detail new data in robotic s. According to news originating from Pisa, Italy, by NewsRx correspondents, res earch stated, “This paper is focused on the design and development of the Porcos pino Flex, a single-track robot inspired by nature and featuring a meta-material structure.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from BioRobotics Institu te: “In the earlier version of the Porcospino, the main body was composed of a c hain of vertebrae and two end sections linked by flexible joints, but the excess ive use of materials in 3D printing and the resulting weight of the robot posed challenges, ultimately leading to a decrease in its overall efficiency and perfo rmance. The Porcospino Flex is manufactured through the fused deposition modelin g process using acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and thermoplastic polyurethane, featuring a singular meta-material structure vertebral column. The adoption of a lattice structure in the main body of the Porcospino Flex leads to a substantia l increase in performance, reducing its weight from 4200 g to 3600 g. Furthermor e, the decrease in weight leads to a reduction in material usage and waste, maki ng a substantial contribution to the sustainability of the robot.”
