Abstract | Links | BibTeX | Tags: Biomimetic sensor, Gyroscope, Haltere @article{nokey, This paper presents a three-axis biomimetic gyroscope, mimicking the haltere of Diptera. Diptera use a club-shaped mechanosensory organ called the haltere to get the three-axis angular velocity information, namely roll, pitch and yaw axes, for flight control. One pair of halteres is physically connected to the wings of Diptera that vibrate in antiphase to the flapping wings in ambient air. They sense the Coriolis force and relay angular velocity information to the Diptera. As an alternative to the conventional micro-electro-mechanical system gyroscopes which are widely used in robotics, many research groups have attempted to mimic the haltere. However, no previous study succeeded in measuring all three-axis components of angular velocity, due to various shortcomings. In this paper, we developed the first three-axis haltere-mimicking gyroscope. Two perpendicularly positioned haltere-mimicking structures that can vibrate at a 180° amplitude were mechanically integrated into a robot actuator. Two accelerometers, placed at the tip of each structure, were employed to measure the Coriolis force. The performance of the novel biomimetic gyroscope was measured in all rotational directions, using a motion capture system as the ground truth. One-axis input experiments were performed 240 times at different input magnitudes and directions, and the measured orientation error was less than ±2.0% in all experiments. In 80 three-axis input experiments, the orientation error was less than ±3.5%. |
