Text of award:
"This team of students designed and built a six-legged robotic insect with an articulated flexible spine, called xJüs. Previous hexapedal robots used a rigid spine, but locating the legs, motor and controllers on three articulated segments gave the robot much greater agility in navigating rough terrain with a smooth gait. The team had to build and integrate the components, write the software to control them, test the robot over differing surfaces and evaluate its power requirements, and monitor its stability using an on-board accelerometer. Professors Phil Holmes and Daniel Nosenchuck advised this project, but perhaps the most telling comment came from Professor Daniel Koditschek of the University of Pennsylvania, a pioneer in hexapedal robots, who wrote after seeing the robot perform 'I must confess to astonishment that such young and inexperienced engineers could conceive – much less achieve – a systems engineering effort on this scale….without reservation…this is the most impressive undergraduate project I have seen in three decades of faculty life at Yale, Michigan and now Penn.'
