Firgelli mini Linear actuator Tetrahedral NASA ROVER robot
Description:
This is a Firgelli Technologies LS9 mini linear actuator Tetrahedral Robot in opperation. for this project 6 x LS9 100mm stroke linear actuators were built specifically for this project. These mini actuators include an automatic force sensing and limit shut-off patent pending technology which makes them ideal for Robotics, the large end caps you see contain the electronics and batteries, once the robot changes shape by moving all 6 actuators at the same time the center of gravity moves such that it eventually falls over, this is how the robot moves, no legs, no wheels, simply moving by adjusting the center of gravity. This concept came from NASA, but they didnt have the technology to make it work, so Firgelli Technologies decided its LS9 technology was ideal.
