  • Abstract
    This paper presents simulation and analysis on dynamics of a hybrid mobile robot. The robot is designed to take advantage of both rolling and jumping locomotion ways on the ground. The most outstanding feature of the robot is the minimum use of actuator. The robot is designed to be able to execute both jumping and rolling skillfully by using only one DC motor. Mechanism design and control logic are validated by computer simulation.
