Article Synopsis
- The space race has evolved over the past 50 years with advancements in mechatronic systems, particularly focusing on bio-inspired mobile-planetary robots, though none have been successfully deployed on the Moon yet.
- Progress has been made in designing robotic systems using biomimetic principles, optimizing them for operation in environments similar to the Moon's surface, like regolith simulants.
- This study reviews and analyzes 482 papers on animal-inspired robotic systems, categorizing them based on locomotion techniques and showcasing the potential for future lunar exploration through innovative designs that mimic the characteristics of various animals.
