— We propose a novel switching control law for the posture stabilization of a wheeled mobile robot, that utilizes the (energetic) passivity of the system’s open-loop dynamics w...
— The ballbot is a dynamically stable mobile robot that moves on a single spherical wheel and is capable of omnidirectional movement. The ballbot is an underactuated system with ...
