Abstract :
A new type of locomotion mechanism is introduced in this paper. A vibrating motor was used to control the movement of the hopping locomotion mechanism. A spring was added to the mechanism to control the frequency, and with the syntonous hopping, the load of the mechanism was greatly increased. Some sensors could be added to this mechanism. Optical sensors were used to lead the mechanism to the special light.
