Locomotion for Difficult Terrain
Introduction Most of the earth's land surface is inaccessible to regular vehicles so there is a need for mobile robots that can handle difficult terrain. Today's robots are mostly designed for traveling over relatively smooth, level or inclined, surfaces. This survey will however discuss d...
