Dynamics and Trajectory Tracking of a Spherical Rolling Robot on an Inclined Plane

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, we derive the dynamics of a spherical rolling robot, called BYQ-III, rolling without slipping on an inclined plane through the constrained Lagrange method. We present a state space realization of this constrained system, and develop a control algorithm for stabilizing the robot to track a desired trajectory on the inclined plane based on input-output feedback linearization. The validity of the proposed control scheme is then verified through simulation study.
