A two wheeled throwable robot comprises an elongate chassis with two ends, a motor at each end, drive wheels connected to the motors, and a tail extending from the elongate chassis. A rear portion having a deep recess securing the pair of motors with brackets, and batteries with brackets. The forward part having a shallow recess with a printed circuit board secured therein having control circuitry. The wheels are less than six inches in diameter and the robot weighs less than five pounds.

A self-propelled device is disclosed that includes a center of mass drive system. The self-propelled device includes a substantially cylindrical body and wheels, with each wheel having a diameter substantially equivalent to the body. The self-propelled device may further include an internal drive system with a center of mass below a rotational axis of the wheels. Operation and maneuvering of the self-propelled device may be performed via active displacement of the center of mass.

A robot has an electronic surveillance system embedded within a chassis disposed between two wheels. The wheels include a main body and a plurality of treads. The treads are generally disposed radially around the main body and extend distally from outer portion of the main body. The main body generally defines a plurality of compression cells and may present a substantially frustoconical outer surface.

This application relates to the field of robot control, and provides a motion state control method and apparatus, a device, and a readable storage medium. The method includes the following steps: Step 301: Acquire basic data and motion state data, the basic data being used for representing a structural feature of a wheeled robot, and the motion state data being used for representing a motion feature of the wheeled robot. Step 302: Determine a state matrix of the wheeled robot based on the basic data and the motion state data, the state matrix being related to an interference parameter of the wheeled robot, the interference parameter corresponding to a balance error of the wheeled robot. Step 303: Determine, based on the state matrix, a torque for controlling the wheeled robot. Step 304: Control, by using the torque, the wheeled robot to be in a standstill state.

A self-propelled device includes a spherical housing and an internal drive system. The self-propelled device can further include an internal structure having a magnet holder that holds a first set of magnets and an external accessory comprising a second set of magnets to magnetically interact, through the spherical housing, with the first set magnets.
