Bio-inspired magnetic soft robot with dual-modal locomotion for enhanced liquid-air interface navigation
摘要Small-scale magnetic soft robots are promising candidates for minimally invasive medical applications;however,they struggle to achieve efficient locomotion across various interfaces.In this study,we propose a magnetic soft robot that integrates two distinct bio-inspired locomotion modes for enhanced interface navigation.Inspired by water striders'superhydrophobic legs and the meniscus climbing behavior of Pyrrhalta nymphaeae larvae,we developed a rectangular sheet-based robot with hy-drophobic surface treatment and novel control strategies.The proposed robot implements two locomotion modes:a bipedal peristaltic locomotion mode(BPLM)and a single-region contact-vibration locomotion mode(SCLM).The BPLM achieves stable movement at 20 mm/s through coordinated front-rear contact points,whereas the SCLM reaches an ultrafast speed of 52 mm/s by optimizing surface tension interactions.The proposed robot demonstrates precise trajectory control with mini-mal deviations and successfully navigates confined spaces while manipulating objects.Theoretical analysis and experimental validation demonstrate that the integration of triangular wave control signals and steady-state components enables smooth transitions between locomotion modes.This study presents a new paradigm for bio-inspired design of small-scale robots and demonstrates the potential for medical applications requiring precise navigation across multiple terrains.
