Abstract
This chapter is dedicated to tackling the issues related to the design and locomotion control of a hybrid wheeled jumping monitoring platform. The studied robot consists of a body mounted on a wheeled platform and of a jump acceleration module. An approach to making design decisions regarding the structure of the investigated robot is proposed. To select the kinematic structure of the robot, classifications of possible variants of hybrid jumping platforms and accelerating modules are presented. Methods for controlling the function of the accelerating modules and the analysis of their work is carried out. Various implementations of jumping motion are discussed; these implementations are characterized by different combinations of relative links movements during various stages of motion. Each of the proposed jump motion types requires the development of a control system, which is also discussed in this chapter.
