| Research Abstract |
A swimmer robot which could move the whole body was firstly developed in the present study. This humanoid robot has half scale as an actual competitive swimmer and has 20 servo motors inside the body. This robot can precisely reproduce the swimming motion of a human. This robot was mounted in a circulating water tank. The swimming motion of the crawl stroke was performed by the robot. The unsteady fluid force acting on the whole robot was experimentally measured. As a result, it was experimentally confirmed that the thrust was produced when the hand pushed the water.
