METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING WHEEL-LEGGED ROBOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18232912 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING WHEEL-LEGGED ROBOT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for controlling a wheel-legged robot.

  • The method involves controlling the movement of different legs of the robot to navigate steps.
  • The first wheel leg is controlled to move from one step to another, while the second wheel leg and an auxiliary wheel leg are stabilized on the first step.
  • Then, the second wheel leg is controlled to move onto the second step, while the first wheel leg is stabilized on the second step and the auxiliary wheel leg is stabilized on the first step.
  • Finally, the auxiliary wheel leg is controlled to move onto the second step, while the first and second wheel legs are stabilized on the second step.
  • This method allows the robot to effectively navigate steps using its wheel legs and auxiliary leg.
  • The apparatus used for implementing this method is not specified in the abstract.
