Abstract

Soft crawling robots can operate regularly in complicated situations and are more adapted to their surroundings. This study presents a novel electroadhesion(EA)-driven soft crawling robot utilizing an origami mechanism design. This innovative combination significantly enhances the environmental adaptability and performance of soft crawling robots. The integration of electroadhesion provides strong surface adherence, while origami techniques enable flexible and efficient movement. We detail the design principles and manufacturing process, optimizing key parameters such as leg lengths and folding angles to maximize crawling efficiency. Extensive experimentation confirms the superior performance of this approach. This multidisciplinary strategy, combining electrostatics, origami, and robotics, opens new possibilities in soft robotics design, offering robust solutions for complex environments.
