空気浮上型能動スコープカメラのための無限回転可能な二自由度能動ノズルの設計と開発

抄録

Flexible continuum robot is useful for search and rescue operation in narrow spaces. We have proposed air jet type Active Scope Camera floating the head of the robot by air jet. The air float hose type robot can move over higher steps and change the moving direction easily. In this paper we suggest how to change the air jet direction around two axes, and how to choose the geometric parameter.
