| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Objectives of this study are to create insect-inspired functional surfaces, and to develop miniature movile robots with various functions integrated on their surfaces. We developed a water-walking robot with water-repellent legs, a wall-climbing robot with adhesive foot-pads, and a flapping-wing robot with micro-structured functional wings. The surface functions and peformances of the robots were evaluated, and the effectiveness of the proposed methods were verified.
