飛行ロボットのための流体駆動式セミアクティブ・グリッパ

抄録

This paper describes method for hanging for pipes and lattice such as air conditioners using UAV. Recently UAVs are expected to utilize for information gathering and work at high altitude. Because continuous flying expends a huge amount of energy, attaching to wall and ceiling by using adhesion or absorption is effective function for saving energy. However, in factory or plant, wall and ceiling often are covered by pipes and lattice, using adhesion or absorption is difficult. Therefore, we propose the semi-active gripper which is pipes/lattice attachable, light weight, and energy saving. Then we show the effectiveness of our method through experiment.
