Wall Climbing Robots

 

Wall Climbing Robots SRI International announced that it has developed and demonstrated robust wall-climbing robots using a new electrical adhesive technology called compliant electroadhesion. Electroadhesion is an electrically controllable adhesion technology that is being applied to wall-climbing robots for the first time. It involves inducing electrostatic charges on a wall surface using a power supply connected to compliant pads placed on the moving robot. Unlike conventional or dry adhesives, the electroadhesion can be turned off for mobility or cleaning. This robotic technology uses a small amount of power and has the ability to repeatedly clamp to wall surfaces covered in dust or debris. Using this technology, SRI has demonstrated a variety of wall-climbing robots, including robots with feet and tracks. More>>
