paper

After dabbling at some boom-assisted steady-state hopping, Jerboa is now trying out transitional behaviors in 3D!

This project was based on Aaronโ€™s initial work with RHex, and Anna Brill (superstar undergrad) was enthusiastic enough to try out some of the same on a much hokier robot.

The paper corresponding to this video was one of my most fun ones to write, in part because of some great co-authors, and just how fun it was to spend 5 minutes programming and seeing Jerboa flying through the air doing all sorts of acrobotics!
