Research Abstract |
As a system of aerial vehicle and landing gear for landing smoothly on general undulating ground, a concept of multi-leg system was proposed. Leg mechanisms that have symmetric parallel links for soft landing was developed and landing performance was verified. Flying performance loading every control, actuation and power equipments and landing performance maintaining its body horizontal on stepped ground were evaluated experimentally. Adaptive leg mechanism to irregular terrain with reduced number of actuators was proposed and landing performance was verified. That utilizes the DOFs of the aerial vehicle.
