Abstract

A new six legged robot for rugged terrain of deep-space exploration is developed. This robot consists of a special steering mechanism which includes two parallel mechanisms. It can reduce the difficulty of control, turn a random angle and realize the pivot steering without the motion of foothold. The gaits of straight going and omnibearing steering are planned. Finally through the kinematics, dynamics simulation and walking experiments, the robot's performances such as mobility, stability and trafficability, have been verified with great satisfaction.
