複数研究室によるミドルサイズ自律移動ロボットプラットフォームの試作

抄録

In the near future, autonomous mobile robots are expected to operate in various locations, such as in living spaces as well as in industrial establishments. Based on this principle, a new autonomous mobile robot platform was designed and prototyped through multi-laboratory collaboration. The robot consists of two low-end in-wheel motors for the sake of simplicity of the design and assembly of the drive unit. It is also effective in space-saving, and for high power and flexible control for various road surface conditions. This paper presents the concept of the platform, the robots derived from the platform.
