LOCOMOTION FOR TENSEGRITIES USING INERTIAL MECHANISMS
CAD MODEL
CURRENT VERSION (FULL)
1D PROTOTYPE
​
After creating the models in SOLIDWORKS, we made a prototype that is restrained to one dimension of freedom.
3D PROTOTYPE
​
Currently, we are working on converting the successful one dimensional prototype above to a free floating box. Due to the extra weight and differing geometry of the actual box, we found many issues flipping a weighted 3D box in one dimension. Below is a successful test of the box flipping with an extra flywheel weight. However, after this test, many of the components, such as the servo and the wooden walls fractured significantly
