The final thesis deals with the design of a biomimetic jellyfish based on Aurelia aurita commonly known as moon jellyfish. The work includes a review of existing literature, the creative process of designing a robot, mathematical modeling and experimental tests. The chosen subject of the research is the moon jellyfish, which due to its interesting movement, represents a special challenge in the design of the robot. For the design of the concept, we use pneumatic nets commonly known as Pneu-Net robots. The concept is developed based on a literature review. In the theoretical discussion, we use the Euler-Bernoulli theory of large deformations. Experimental tests are carried out in the laboratory and the Tivoli swimming pool, where we check the swimming and movement of the final product. The results of the experimental tests are compared both with the results of the mathematical model and with real moon jellyfish. The comparison is based on photos of the robot in different phases of movement.
