STAR: a miniature all-terrain robot for office buildings

Actually, a miniature robot, which will be discussed in this article, can move not only in office buildings, but in general in many places with difficult terrain. Such a robot is ideally suited to the role of a spy, and this can be understood by watching the video posted below. Interestingly, this device was developed by students of UC Berkeley, and most of the robot (with the exception of the electronic component) is printed on a 3D printer.

The name of the robot, STAR, is an abbreviation, the full name is Sprawl Tuned Autonomous Robot. The robot can move very quickly, in addition, it can crawl under the door, as well as overcome various obstacles. The "behavior" of the robot is very similar to the behavior of some insects.

The printer used to create the hull and parts is the ProJet 3000 3D. According to the developers, the project is now ready, and there is no particular difficulty in printing several hundred or even thousands of robots of this type at once. Well, now is the time to watch the video, with a demonstration of the capabilities of the robot.
