A hexapod robot is a mechanical vehicle that walks on six legs. Since a robot can be statically stable on three or more legs, a hexapod robot has a great deal of flexibility in how it can move. If legs become disabled, the robot may still be able to walk. Furthermore, not all of the robot's legs are needed for stability; other legs are free to reach new foot placements or manipulate a payload. Many hexapod robots are biologically inspired by Hexapoda locomotion. Hexapods may be used to test biological theories about insect locomotion, motor control, and neurology.  2, record 4, English, - hexapod%20robot

Un robot hexapode est un véhicule mécanique dont la locomotion est basé sur trois paires de pattes. L'étude de la marche des insectes est d'un intérêt particulier pour présenter une alternative à l'usage de roues pour la locomotion des robots. Le terme se réfère donc aux robots d'inspiration biologique imitant dans le cas présent les animaux hexapodes tels les insectes. Les robots hexapodes sont considérés plus stables que les robots bipèdes du fait que dans la plupart des cas, les hexapodes sont statiquement stables. De ce fait, ils ne dépendent pas de contrôleurs en temps réel pour rester debout ou pour marcher. Cependant, il a été démontré qu'à grandes vitesses de déplacement, les insectes sont dépendants de facteurs dynamiques.  2, record 4, French, - robot%20hexapode

The Stewart platform consists of two plates connected by six mobile and extensible legs. The lower or base plate is immobile. The upper or mobile plate has six degrees of freedom, three rotational and three translational. The platform is highly stable and easy to control. The platform’s six legs each have two parts, an upper and a lower leg, with a piston-like cylindrical DoF between each pair of parts. The legs are connected to the base plate and the top plate by universal joints at each end of each leg. (These universals are not just sets of abstract DoFs. Each also contains a spider-like body, while also having two DoFs.) The upper part of each leg can slide into and out of the lower leg, allowing each leg to be varied in length. The position and orientation of the mobile platform (top plate) varies depending on the lengths to which the six legs are separately adjusted. Once the top is connected to the legs, the entire Stewart platform assembly has 36 DoFs. Only six DoFs are independent, the same as the top plate would have if it were disconnected. You can think of these independent DoFs as the six adjustable leg lengths or as equivalent to the six DoFs of the mobile plate.  2, record 5, English, - Stewart%20platform

Hexapod is a support facility to be mounted on an EXPA of the ISS. The facility will be used for the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III(SAGE III). The facility has a bottom plate and a top plate. The two plates are connected by 6 linear actuators. Hexapod receives the pointing data from SAGE III and the actual base position from the ISS-EXPA. From this data the HEXAPOD control algorithm calculates the next position for each leg. Each linear actuator is driven by a double winding Brushless DC Motor, while the position is monitored by an incremental encoder. To sustain the launch load a launch support structure has been designed, which is released by dedicated electromechanical devices. Hexapod is controlled by a dedicated electronic unit... which interfaces to the Station via the MIL BUS 1553B.  3, record 7, English, - Hexapod%20pointing%20device
