DuCTT Robot, First Climb of a Short Duct Section
Published on Feb 19, 2015
The Dual Compliant Tetrahedral Tensegrity Robot (DuCTT Robot) is designed for navigation of complex duct systems, with the ultimate goal being autonomous inspection and cleaning of such systems. The project is spearheaded by myself as one facet of my PhD research, with substantial contributions from members of the Flow Control and Coordinated Robotics Lab (FCCR) at UC San Diego and the Dynamic Tensegrity Robotics Lab (DTRL) within the Intelligent Robotics Group at NASA Ames Research Center.
Here you see a preliminary climb of a small fiberglass duct section. Due to the early stage of testing we are operating the robot with only %40 of possible actuator power, limiting the ultimate climbing speed.
