The application of the efficiency movement of animals in robotics

Abstract

In recent decades, robotics has witnessed exponential growth and widespread application across various domains such as manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, and civil engineering. However, the significant energy consumption of current robotic systems has become a limitation for robotics. The efficiency movement of animals, which can be used to design and apply in robotics, can help reduce energy consumption. This review explores whether animal movements can contribute to energy savings in robotics. It seeks the existing applications of biological movement principles in robotic systems, analyzes the rationale behind their animal models, and discusses the challenges faced. By studying this paper, it is concluded that the biological movement can save energy and provide insights for the future development of energy-efficient, bio-inspired robotic systems.
