We have developed a novel concept of mobile robot called Gyrover which is a single-wheel, gyroscopically stabilized robot, based on the principle of gyroscopic precession, as exhibited in stability of a rolling wheel. |
We have been developing some fundamental technologies for space robotics for many years and have made contributions in design, control, dynamics, modeling and real-time implementation of various space robotics systems. |
We have built a free-floating underactuated robot with passive joints. We are currently examining the issues such as controllability, dynamic coupling index, control strategy, nonholonomic motion planning and close-chain durality. |
