Abstract

Spherical robot has good potential for complex environment adaptation, but the single internal driving principle limits its multifaceted performance. In this paper, we present a composite driving principle which uses pendulum and momentum wheels. The abilities to change motion state and surmount obstacles have been improved. This article also contains the dynamic analysis and a controller of this driving principle. Finally, we implement necessary simulations and experiments to prove the performance of this driving principle in both aspects.
