Abstract

The ability of climbing steps and slopes are required for on-land tiny mobile robot to move on rough terrain in the riverside area. We have already proposed a new wheel shape; notched wheel that can satisfy the maximum potential of the abilities and easily calculate the abilities. However, the model has not mentioned the phase difference between the left and right wheels. We found that the method of phase difference is so effective to improve the climbing ability of slopes. The climbing step ability become high when the right side of the notched wheels is π/2 different from left side wheels. In this paper, we describe the details of the methods and show some experimental results.
