1P2-O01 IBM Wheel : Mechanism of Internal Balanced Magnetic Wheel : Basic Concept and the First Prototype Model(Mobile Robot with Special Mechanism (2))

Abstract

This paper describes the IBM Wheel: mechanism of internal balanced magnetic wheel . IB-Magnet has been proposed and developed by prof. Shigeo Hirose. This time, we tried to expand the concept of it to the wheel mechanism.The prototype model is designed and developed. The basic motion of the prototype is confirmed experimentally.
