Upside-Down Robots: Modeling and Experimental Validation of Magnetic-Adhesion Mobile Systems

In this paper, we present the modeling and validation of a new family of climbing robots that are capable of adhering to vertical surfaces through permanent magnetic elements. The robotic system is composed of two modules, the master and the follower carts, which are arranged in a sandwich configura...
