Ringbot: monocycle robot with legs
Feb 7, 2024
KIMLAB (Kinetic Intelligent Machine LAB)In this video, we present Ringbot, a novel leg-wheel transformer robot incorporating a monocycle mechanism with legs. Ringbot aims to provide versatile mobility by replacing the driver and driving components of a conventional monocycle vehicle with legs mounted on compact driving modules inside the wheel.
Ringbot represents KIMLAB's "ingenuity", demonstrating our ability to bring a sci-fi-like mobile robot to the real world through robotics.
Thank you for watching this video! If you're interested in exploring the technical details further, you can find them in the following link.

Ringbot outdoor test
Apr 8, 2024
We conducted trials of Ringbot outdoors on a 400m track. With a power source of 2300mAh 11.1V, Ringbot managed to cover approximately 3km in 37 minutes. We commanded its target speed and direction using a remote joystick controller (Steam Deck), and Ringbot experienced five falls during this trial.
