Abstract :
In this paper, the most representative authors´ contributions in the field of mobile minirobots´ mobility structures are emphasized. Thus, in the first part, several developed in-pipe inspection- exploration minirobots are presented. Two new models of omnidirectional minirobots based on both conventional and omnidirectional wheels, are also described.
