Jumping on Water: Robotic Water Strider

Posted by

Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University

In this video, watch how novel robotic insects developed by a team of Seoul National University and Harvard scientists can jump directly off water's surface. The robots emulate the natural locomotion of water strider insects, which skim on and jump off the surface of water. For more information, please visit: http://wyss.harvard.edu/viewpressrelease/210/
