The Wheelbot is a wheel unicycle developed by researchers at Max Planck Institute that jumps onto its wheels from any initial position. The robot can self-erect itself from any position either by rolling up with its rolling wheel, or by standing up using its reaction wheel. This wheel unicycle uses brushless motors with high torque-to-weight ratios. As a result, the Wheelbot has a better balance and can reject disturbances to a greater extent than previous reaction wheel unicycle robots. Researchers: A.
