By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Fresh data on Robotics are presented i n a new report. According to news reporting out of Waterloo,Canada,by NewsRx e ditors,research stated,"Hybrid track/wheel-legged robots combine the advantage s of wheel-based and leg-based locomotion,granting adaptability across varied t errains through efficient transitions between rolling and walking modes. However ,automating these transitions remains a significant challenge." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of W aterloo,"In this paper,we introduce a method designed for autonomous mode tran sition in a quadruped hybrid robot with a track/wheel-legged configuration,espe cially during step negotiation. Our approach hinges on a decision-making mechani sm that evaluates the energy efficiency of both locomotion modes using a propose d energy-based criterion. To guarantee a smooth negotiation of steps,we incorpo rate two climbing gaits designated for the assessment of energy usage in walking locomotion. Simulation results validate the method's effectiveness,showing suc cessful autonomous transitions across steps of diverse heights." According to the news editors,the research concluded: "Our suggested approach h as universal applicability and can be modified to suit other hybrid robots of si milar mechanical configuration,provided their locomotion energy performance is studied beforehand."
