by Marc Ziegler Diversity of animalĀfs morphology is particularly impressive in the underwater world. It has been uncovered that various properties of morphology have been optimized for the efficient locomotion in the evolutionary process. In this project we explore such morphologicalproperties for the purpose of underwater robot locomotion. Towardadaptive underwater locomotion, this project investigates a fish-likeswimming robot. By using motor control with only one degree of freedom,this robot exhibits surprisingly rich behavioral diversity in threedimensional underwater environment. |
