In the field of marine robotics, an underwater robot called HERO-BLUE<\/strong> has been developed, capable of adapting its movements both to swim and to walk or crawl on the seabed. This versatility significantly distinguishes it from conventional ROVs<\/a><\/strong> that rely exclusively on propellers and often face limitations in environments full of obstacles or strong currents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HERO-BLUE: an underwater robot with innovative design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In underwater exploration situations such as inspecting submerged structures<\/strong> or investigating shipwrecks, traditional remotely operated vehicles often have problems with entanglement with materials such as algae and debris. However, HERO-BLUE, thanks to its innovative design, can overcome these challenges by using its flexible fins to maneuver in such environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This robot, the product of research by Taesik Kim and his team at the Pohang University of Science and Technology in South Korea, is inspired by the AQUA robot and features a locomotion system that imitates the movement of fish fins. With four multi-mode and two lateral fins, HERO-BLUE can alter its stiffness depending on the direction of the applied force, allowing it to adapt to various underwater conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n
