Fig. 2: Performance of the demonstrated water surface jumper based on proposed mechanism.
From: Beyond surface tension-dominated water surface jumping
a Radar chart illustrates the performance comparison for the water surface jumper based on the proposed mechanism with natural and engineered water surface jumping system. b Jumping height and take-off velocity comparison of the soft robot in the current study with previously reported engineered water surface jumping robots and insects1,2,10,11,22,25,27,34,43,44,45. Note that the take-off speed shown in Fig. 2 are obtained from Supplementary Movie 2.
