This page will serve as the repository for all things related to the adhesive pad demonstrator.
Design
The demonstrator is a stand-alone device that can be used to test
ClimbingAdhesion. The top part of the demonstrator consists of one slightly modified
StickyBotIII foot, including the ankle suspension. (The flexure in the foot is extended so that it only joins the foot in two places allowing for increased strength for shipment.) The device has a mass of 0.4 kg, or approximately half of the weight of
StickyBotIII.
Collaborators
We will send the device to: UMass, Case Western, Darpa, Robert Full of the poly-PEDAL lab at Berkeley, Draper
