Cockroach Robot veloci-roach
VelociRoach is a small, crawling robot inspired by the maneuverability of the cockroach.
The team studied how the animal can move so well. Members built a lab model using laser cutters to cut and assemble paper into pieces that mimic blades of grass. They also outfitted “veloci-roach” with a saucer-shaped back plate so it could turn on its side and use its legs to squeeze through spaces.
