  • Abstract
    This paper presents a design on a small robotic fish with infrared remote receiver and IPMC actuator, and verifies that using IPMC as an actuator is feasible. In our experiment, we compare results of the robotic fish´s speed in different actuating signal, such as square wave and sine wave. We also give the results of robotic fish´s speed in different frequency and amplitude.
