Relevant Documentation Links
Data sheets, CAD model numbers, etc?The current configuration of the rover doesn’t have the capability to steer the wheels for tighter turning radius and better maneuverability
An example of wheel steering motors on rovers:
The idea is to research and update the wheel assembly joint design for implementing a wheel steering motor in future rover designs
Task Breakdown
- Research other rover designs and determine how many wheel steering motors are required
- Determine the torque required to rotate a wheel assembly, assuming the rover is on flat ground, for proper motor sizing
- Spec out appropriate motor and bearings
- Re-design wheel assembly joint to incorporate wheel steering motor
Prerequisites
No prerequisites.
