Abstract

The rocker bogie mechanism is a type of suspension system commonly used in robotic vehicles, particularly in space exploration rovers like NASA’s Mars rovers. Unlike traditional spring-based suspensions, the rocker bogie mechanism relies on a system of pivoting joints and linkages to maintain stability and traction over uneven terrain. This mechanism allows the vehicle to traverse rough surfaces by distributing weight and adjusting wheel positions to accommodate obstacles. Its abstract nature lies in its ability to provide stability and mobility without relying on springs, making it well-suited for navigating challenging environments such as rocky terrain or steep slopes. Overall, the rocker bogie suspension system is well-suited for applications where stability, mobility, and reliability are paramount, making it a preferred choice for planetary exploration missions and other off-road vehicles operating in rugged terrain
