  • Abstract
    The single wheel, gyroscopically stabilized robot, Gyrover, is dynamically stable but statically unstable, with both first-order and second-order nonholonomic constraints. In this paper, based on the dynamic model of the robot, we first study the two classes of nonholonomic constraints associated with the system. We then propose control laws for balance control in different cases.
