| Research Abstract |
For the purpose of improving mobility and performance of four-wheeled skid-steering mobile robots(4 WSSMRs) on rough terrain, we studied a wheel mechanism installing six ankle joints at circumferential positions of a wheel for landing by the toe of each foot one by one. Traverse-ability to evaluate a performance of stepping up/over obstacles concerned with including its reverse motion has been introduced.
