Research Abstract |
In this research, we proposed a new concept called Passive Mobile Robotics and designed mobile robots and their motion control algorithms for supporting humans effectively with keeping the safety. In this concept, the mobile robots move based on the external force/moment applied by a human, and brake systems attached to the wheels control their motions appropriately. Based on this brake control, we realized several functions for supporting humans.
