Abstract
A soft biomimetic legged robot is provided in the present invention, including a plurality of soft robotic arms. The soft robotic arms include a plurality of motion units, and each of the motion units includes one or more of a twist module, an extension module, a contraction, and a bending module. The plurality of motion units is combined to achieve a full-posture motion of the soft robotic arms. By using soft robotic arms composed of different motion units, the soft biomimetic legged robot of the present invention can not only realize the underwater swimming and crawling, but the crawling on land or slopes, thereby adapting to more complicated environments and achieving richer functions. The motion posture is not limited to a single bending, twisting, extension, and shortening. The soft robotic arm can achieve full-posture movements, and its motion type is more complete.
