Position Control of the Single Spherical Wheel Mobile Robot by Using the Fuzzy Sliding Mode Controller

A spherical wheel robot or Ballbot—a robot that balances on an actuated spherical ball—is a new and recent type of robot in the popular area of mobile robotics. This paper focuses on the modeling and control of such a robot. We apply the Lagrangian method to derive the governing dynamic equations of...
