Design and Dynamics Simulation of a Triphibious Robot in Webots Environment

Abstract

Robots are now required to work in different environments, which arouses a great demand for a flexible and highly adaptive mobile robot platform. To introduce a design of a triphibious robot with tilt-rotors and its simulation in Webots environment, this paper firstly describes the mechanical structure and working methods of the robot; then mathematical model of the robot is carried out; finally, simulation environment in Webots is built to verify the feasibility of the model.
