University of Washington Engineers Develop Direct-Drive Hopping Robot for Precision Locomotion

TechXplore Engineering reports that researchers have built a one-gram robot capable of clearing standard stair steps through controlled jumping. The DirectHop prototype replaces traditional spring-loaded mechanisms with a tiny electric motor and a spool of fishing line, allowing
