Design of a Novel Self-Balancing Mechanism on AGV for Stable Stair Climbing

Task space beyond 2D planes brings challenges to the traditional automated guided vehicle (AGV) on goods delivery. In this paper, a novel self-balancing platform is designed for the stable stair climbing of AGV. While the AGV is moving in a constructional site, this mechanism enhances the AGV to handle heavy payload or even carry another operating robot, through keeping them horizontal to the ground over time. In the design, the two...
