STUDIES REGARDING TETRAHEDRAL ROBOTS WITH OMNIDIRECTIONAL LOCOMOTION UNITS

Anca-Corina SIMEREAN, Mihai Olimpiu TĂTAR

Abstract


In this paper authors highlight modeling, simulation, and implementation of a mobile robot with spherical locomotion units. The design of the spherical locomotion units, characteristics of the proposed robot, kinematic analysis, and aspects related to control and testing of the experimental prototype are discussed.
