Miniature Autonomous Robot Based on Legged In-Plane Piezoelectric Resonators with Onboard Power and Control

This work reports the design, fabrication, and characterization of a centimetre-scale autonomous robot with locomotion based on in-plane piezoelectric resonators and 3D-printed inclined legs. The robot consists of a pair of cooperative piezoelectric motors, an electronic power circuit and a battery-...
