A Self-stabilising Multipurpose Single-wheel Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents a design process of a single-wheel robot which consists of building a theoretical model, designing a mechanical structure, simulating the design, building a prototype and testing it. It describes the control strategy for this vehicle, developed during the simulation process, and how it works for a ready built prototype. It mainly focuses on the self-stabilisation problem encountered in the single-wheel structure and shows the test rig results for this case. The design of the robot is under patent protection.

A Novel Multimode Mobile Robot with Adaptable Wheel Geometry for Maneuverability Improvement
In this paper, an innovative mobile platform is presented which is equipped by three new wheels. The core of the new idea is to establish a new design of rigid circular structure which can be implemented as a wheel by variable radius. The structure of wheel includes a circular pattern of a simple two-link mechanism assembled to obtain a wheel shape. Each wheel has two degrees of freedom. The fi...
متن کاملAn optimal wheel-torque control on a compliant modular robot for wheel-slip minimization
This paper discusses the development of an optimal wheel torque controller for a compliant modular robot. The wheel actuators are the only actively controllable elements in this robot. For this type of robots, wheel-slip could offer a lot of hindrance while traversing on uneven terrains. Therefore, an effective wheel-torque controller is desired that will also improve the wheel-odometry and min...

Recent advances in technology have lead to growing interest in robotic application. More recently, a growing interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has been shown among the research community. Being able to design a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL)-UAV, which is highly maneuverable and extremely stable, is an important contribution in the field of aerial robotics since potential applica...
متن کاملIOT Controlled Two Wheel Self Supporting Robot Without External Sensor
An Two wheel self supporting robot is design using IOC(Internet-on-a-chip) controller. The DC motor is controlled by PWM technique. In the existing system the robot were designed using tilt sensor, IR sensor, Attitude sensor and moving robot in a straight line. We propose a new design in two wheel self support robot using the principle of curvature technique, were a force that makes the robot t...
