Feedback control of automatic navigation for cyborg cockroach without external motion capture system

“…A platinum wire (A-M systems) with a diameter of 0.127 mm was implemented as the electrode and inserted into the antennae, thorax, and cerci. We used the same procedure from the previous study for implanting electrodes into cockroaches [ 2 , 24 ]. A copper wire (32 AWG) was utilized as a wire connector between the platinum electrode and the female header pin.…”

“…To overcome these issues, researchers have studied how to optimize the cockroach hybrid robot motion by implementing certain algorithms and inertial measuring unit (IMU) sensor. IMU is the most widely used sensor applied to insect hybrid robots to capture the kinematics of the hybrid robots [ 1 , 2 , 4 , 9 , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] ]. The previous study implemented predictive feedback control based on the linear and angular velocity obtained from the IMU sensor to the cockroach hybrid robot.…”
