#### Overview

In the **Motivaion and Inspiration** section, we explain about the motivation for the design of our 4-legged robot, RoboisE. The **Design** section contains an explanation of why we chose to use Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) to drive the motion of our robot and how we employed DEAs to move the 4 limbs of the RoboisE, which resembles a tortoise (see ***Figure 1***), to bring about directed motion.

In the **Fabrication** section, we document the process of the making and assembly of the RoboisE's body, actuators, and electrical connections. In the **Testing** section, we describe the actuation of the RoboisE and include videos of the RoboisE in motion.

####  Get to know us...

We are undergrads from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. Our team comprises "Captain" Lan, Zaki, Febby and Marco (not from Tropoja). Just in case you are curious how we look like, this is an image of us, discussing intensely, exhibiting such amazing synergy. As you can see in the team photo, our Captain Lan is enthusiastically gesticulating with both hands, telling us that "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts".
