Spinybot II: Climbing walls with microspines

Uploaded on Apr 30, 2010


The Spinybot II robot is able to climb a wide range of rough exterior surfaces using arrays of small spines, which hook onto bumps and pits on the surface. Each spine is supported by its own compliant suspension to permit all of them to contact the surface and share the loads between them. Developed by Alan Asbeck and Sangbae Kim.
