Cylindabot: Transformable Wheg Robot Traversing Stepped and Sloped Environments
The ability of an autonomous robot to adapt to different terrain affords the flexibility to move successfully in a range of environments. This paper proposes the Cylindabot, a transformable Wheg robot that can move with two large wheels, each of which can rotate out, producing three legs. This abili...
