摘要：AbstractThe development of a prototype of an underwater robot with a variable geometry of the body is a major complex task, including a whole series of tasks of a scientific, technical, engineering and applied nature, and the creation of new automatic systems for managing it. The creation of such a robot will ensure its high autonomy and maneuverability. In this paper, the development of a solid model of a biomimetic robot hybrid and AUV with a variable geometry of the hull is presented. Also presented is a basic pneumatic circuit integrated into the robot body, which drives the pneumatic muscles fixed to the ribs of the robot’s robust body. The experimental part includes the investigation of the vertical and horizontal components of the deformation of the walls of the shell, depending on the pressure supplied by the pneumatic system to the pneumatic cusps.
