Abstract

We introduce the conceptual design of a wheel-track hybrid mobile robot. Comparing to most hybrid platforms which have separate mechanisms of wheels and tracks, this robot is implemented with a transformation mechanism which directly changes the morphology of wheels (i.e. rim is a full circle) into quadrangle tracks (i.e. rim is a $\prime\prime\infty\prime\prime$ ). The transformation principle, locomotion method, and the initial experimental test of the robot are also reported.
