When working on rough terrain or in other hazard environments, there existed some possibilities that the robot will be turned up side down, thus causing losses to the robot's expedition. Multi bodied mobile robots provide a solution to that problem. Using active joints between bodies, the robot can recover from turnover situation by itself. In this paper, the authors discuss the joint arrangements and the additional maneuverability resulted from joints between body segments.展开更多
文摘Ordinary mobile robots have some kind of moving mechanisms attached to one rigid body. When working on rough terrain or in other hazard environments, there existed some possibilities that the robot will be turned up side down, thus causing losses to the robot's expedition. Multi bodied mobile robots provide a solution to that problem. Using active joints between bodies, the robot can recover from turnover situation by itself. In this paper, the authors discuss the joint arrangements and the additional maneuverability resulted from joints between body segments.
