DESCRIPTION
GrowBot is a Service-Robots from IIT (Italian Institute of Technology). It is built for Research.
GrowBot is IIT's H2020 FET-Proactive line of plant-inspired growing robots that move by growing — like climbing plants — to anchor, negotiate voids, and climb where wheeled, legged, or rail climbers struggle.
FEATURES
- Movement-by-growth paradigm inspired by climbing plants (H2020 GrowBot / FET-Proactive)
- Low-mass, low-volume soft robots that can anchor and climb through unstructured gaps
- Osmosis-driven / reversible actuation concepts for tendril-like coiling and attachment
- Bio-hybrid energy ideas converting environmental mechanical energy (wind/rain, contact) into usable power
- Micropatterned attachment devices inspired by climbing-plant hooks and pads
