Abstract :
The purpose of this research is to realize a motion along a straight line by a unicycle robot. The robot consists of upper and lower bodies connected with a joint. Our final target of this research is to realize navigation in indoor environment with the robot. In this paper, we describe the driving control system, and show results of the motion desired.
