---|---|---|---|---|
The objective of this project is to create an underwater robot that looks and swims like a fish. The fish is to achieve these biomimetics by utilizing McKibben muscles to hydraulically propel the fish. The fish will be able to swim forward and turn, and have depth control using active buoyancy in both R/C and autonomous modes. This project is a continuation of P14029, who built a robotic fish capable of swimming forward and turning. The project was an exercise in biomimicry and used artificial McKibben muscles to propel the robot. Goals and Objectives
