The robot spider can bend and bend like a desert spider in Africa

Owning the design is somewhat bizarre, but the model of spider robot and flying fox of Festo company makes viewers admiring and surprised.

Automation company Festo (Germany) has a history of developing many models of wild animal simulation robots . It is impossible not to mention kangaroo, elephants, ants and now a robot spider or flying fox.

Thinking about the idea of ​​spiders that would scare many people, the robot spider, inspired by the spider nickname Flic-Flac, is quite interesting and cute.

The Flic-Flac spiders in the Sahara desert have a very special way of moving.

And here's how the spider robot moves.

The spiders Cebrennus rechenbergi nicknamed Flic-Flac, dubbed the world's best acrobatic dancers. They live in the Sahara and have a unique way of moving, which is acrobatics. They had to move in such a continuous acrobatic fashion to avoid being burnt by the hot sand of up to tens of degrees Celsius.

Professor Bionics Ingo Rechenberg, who discovered the Flic-Flac spider, has been involved in supporting the idea of ​​Festo's spider robot.

According to The Verge, Festo's spider robot has 8 legs and 15 engines in the knee and body. When it curls up, only 6 legs are shrinking, while the other two are responsible for pushing and rolling forward. Thanks to the integration of inertial sensors, the robot can know when and when to roll.

In addition, Festo introduced another unique robot model, the flying fox robot . As the name suggests, from shaping to being able to move, everything is like a flying fox.

Flying fox robots use flying membranes made of ultra-light, thin materials but are also quite solid. This type of film consists of two thin sheets and knitted elastane fibers. They are tied together at least 45 thousand points. Thanks to good elastic material, the wing almost does not encounter shrinkage, even when shrinking.

The sturdy wing also supports flying fox robots that can move even when slightly torn or damaged. Currently, robots can move around a defined space by connecting to a motion tracking system.
