Abstract
Selecting a suitable locomotion way for a mobile robot is critical for succeeding its mission. This paper introduces a cylinder-like robot that can locomote by means of either rolling or jumping on the ground. First, design of the robot is described to explain the mechanism for enabling rolling and jumping by using only one DC motor. Second, the design is analyzed in terms of energy efficiency and compared to a couple of hybrid mobile robots.
