<title>Abstract</title>In this paper, a novel terrain traversability prediction method is proposed for new operation environments. When an off-road vehicle is operated on rough terrains or slopes made up of unconsolidated materials, it is crucial ...
<title>Abstract</title>Hopping robots, called hoppers, are expected to move on rough terrains, such as disaster areas or planetary environments. The uncertainties of the hopping locomotion in such environments are high, making path planning algori...

We have been developing a lunar subsurface excavation robot using peristaltic crawling based on an earthworm's locomotion. In existing robots, the excavated soil must be manually removed by humans. To overcome this limitation, we have been de...
Lunar or planetary exploration is scientifically meaningful because they can give us the hint to throw a light on the origin and evolution of the solar system or the earth, the inner structure of planets, etc. In lunar or planetary exploration mis...
The performance of an integrated navigation system is studied through the field experiments on a four-wheeled test-bed rover, AKI, operated in a terrestrial analogue. The AKI rover employs novel mobility and navigation systems which enable challen...
JAXA is planning to launch Hayabusa 2 in December 2014. Hayabusa 2 will be equipped with an asteroid exploration rover which is developed by the consortium of universities. A goal of the rover is establishment of the technology for locomotion on a...
Asteroid probe Hayabusa 2 is developed by JAXA. Asteroid exploration rovers will be carried by Hayabusa 2. In our research project, we have developed an environmental-temperature-driven buckling actuator with a bimetal thin plate for a hopping mec...
