Research Statement

Crawling robots could be used in tricky environments or inaccessible place for standard-wheeled robots. However, they are far from being employed in real-world scenarios, due to their complexity of realization and technological limitations. Several studies have been conducted in order to study their locomotion, but few real-world model where build. My task in the Ishiguro-Kano lab is to understand their motion, implement a decentralized control scheme and build a physical robot to test my results.
