Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of automatic control, in particular to a ball wheel mobile robot and a control method thereof. The autonomous ball-wheel mobile robot includes: a spherical wheel (1), a universal wheel drive mechanism (2), a support structure (3), a booster support (6), a control module (4) and a sensor; wherein the sensor detects the attitude of the robot and the environment Information; the control module (4) analyzes the environmental information to obtain the control strategy, obtains the control strategy through the balance and motion control algorithm, and sends the control signal to the universal wheel drive mechanism (2); the universal wheel drive mechanism (2) drives according to the control signal The rotation of the DC motor drives the movement of the spherical wheel (1), thereby realizing attitude and motion control of the robot. The invention can automatically realize static and dynamic balance, can pass through barrier-free passages, has good maneuverability and strong environmental adaptability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic control, in particular to a ball wheel mobile robot and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] The research of spherical wheeled mobile robot has become a hotspot in the research of dynamic stable robot. The world's first ball-wheel robot was developed by Carnegie Mellon University in 2005. It is called CMU Ballbot. The robot has the size of an adult and uses an inverse mouse-driven structure. There is no mechanism to make the robot statically stable in the electric state, and an additional yaw mechanism is needed to realize yaw motion. In 2009, the new version of CMU Ballbot designed a leg support to solve the problem of static instability of the robot. However, the structure of the leg support is complicated, which makes the control of the robot more complicated. In 2008, Tohoku Gakuin University in Japan designed the BallIP robot. The robot uses three sets of symmetrical u...
