Abstract
The paper presents a mini robot which moves as a result of vibratory forces. The robot has elastic bristles which allow the robot to vibrate. The vibration of the robot is generated by one or two unbalanced motors. With one motor the robot moves forward and with two motors the trajectory of the motor can be controlled. The paper presents the mathematical models of the robots, simulation of their behavior, prototypes, and some parameters which characterize their properties.
