The Mobile ball-wheel robot is also known as a ballbot is a dynamically-stable mobile robot designed to balance on a single spherical wheel like solid ball. The based locomotion is done by its single contact point with the ground; the ball-wheel platform is composed by 3 omnidirectional wheels and most be executed with agilely manoeuvrability and several sensors for vertical control stability.
Its dynamic stability enables improved navigability in narrow space, the ball-wheel robot works with the same principle as an inverted pendulum.
