Abstract
Many tiny robots have developed which walk in smooth surface but the problem face in complex terrain. Some wheel based robot move in flat surface only. In this paper, we studied some bio-inspired jumping robots like Grillo, Mini-Whegs, MSU jumper, EPFL. Because Jumping is used by small animals in nature, rough terrain and cluttered environment. These robots use energy store and release mechanism.
