ABSTRACT
Various robot platforms have been designed and developed to perform given tasks in a hazardous environment for surveillance, reconnaissance, search and rescue, etc. We considered a terrain-adaptive and transformable hybrid robot platform that is equipped for rapid navigation on flat floors and good performance in overcoming stairs or obstacles. The mode transition is determined and implemented by adaptive driving mode control of the mobile robot. The terrain-adaptive and user-friendly remote control was verified through its navigation performance experiments in real and test-bed environments.

Concept of a novel four-wheel-type mobile robot for rough terrain, RT-mover
IROS'09: Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE/RSJ international conference on Intelligent robots and systemsIn many fields employing robots, e.g., wheelchair robots, rescue robots, and construction robots, those which can move on rough terrain are desired. A robot with a simple mechanism and high mobility for all-terrain is discussed in this paper. A novel ...
