Fig. 6. Force generated when a mantis shrimp strikes with both raptorial appendages. Four force peaks are detected by a one-axis force sensor when struck by two raptorial appendages. Based on the high-speed video and acoustic analyses above, the two higher peak forces were generated by limb impact and the two lower peaks were generated during cavitation bubble collapse.
