Scalable Robot Fish Can Easily Swim in a Creek or Lake
Assistant Professor Nana Obayashi led development of ScaFi, a robotic fish built from a single blueprint at three sizes, from just under two feet to nine feet long, to explore creeks, streams, and lakes without requiring separate robots for each environment. "The environments we care about don't come in one size, so we don't think the tools should either," Obayashi said.
