In this study, we developed a flexible deformable mobile robot with a two-dimensional shape and aimed at realizing omnidirectional movement. It moves by traveling wave which generated by pressurizing the air to bending modules periodically. In order to realize moving operation only by pressurization without using a solenoid valve, we developed a pneumatic self-excited valve with leaf springs. In this paper, we report movement of the flexible deformable mobile robot by the pneumatic self-excited valve.
