The code defines rotation matrices to manipulate the model's orientation in three-dimensional space. Within a time loop, it updates the positions of each ... enabling the simulation of movement in ...
It is also more energy-efficient than its previous iteration and can swim not just on the surface, but upward and downward, just like an actual manta ray. Another research team at MIT used the ...
Abstract: Manta ray-inspired robots exhibit broad application prospects. In nature, different manta rays possess different stiffness of pectoral fins to survive in specific environment. Some rays ...
