Soft Robotic Fish Sets Speed Record
2 min read
Researchers from the Shenyang Institute of Automation published a study on Oct. 5 detailing an electrohydraulically actuated soft robotic fish. The device achieves a maximum speed of 2.13 body lengths per second while performing complex 3D maneuvers. This design combines rigid, flexible coupled propulsion with dynamic buoyancy regulation to overcome previous trade-offs between speed and agility in underwater robots.
