Based on the design of an inertia-driven modular robot, this paper proposes a new design of cubic robot using snap-through-buckling mechanisms as actuators for achieving translational and rotational motion in multiple directions. Through experiments, the characteristics of the mechanism were obtained, and performance of the robot was assessed.
