Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a measuring device for insect walking and crawling characteristics on three planes, and belongs to the technical field of measuring biological walking and crawling characteristics. Background technique
[0002] Movement is the basic characteristic of animals and the basis of animal predation, escape, reproduction, migration and other behaviors. Pods living on the ground realize driving, stabilizing, maneuvering and other motion behaviors through the interaction between the soles of the feet and the ground. In particular, people often see flies, ants, crickets and other insects crawling quickly on smooth surfaces, and even hang upside down from the ceiling. This has attracted the interest of biologists, and extensive research has been carried out. Studies have found that many insects have sticky pads of various shapes on their feet. These footpads are quick to release, and the traction generated by the footpads controls walki...
