Proposal for personal mobility vehicle supported by mobility support system

We propose a personal mobility vehicle (PMV) supported by mobility support system (MSS), which expands the field of activities of PMV. This vehicle, which is called RT-Mover P-type 2, shows adequate mobility performance in urban area. A strength of it is that it realize both a leg mode and a wheel m...

Description
Summary:We propose a personal mobility vehicle (PMV) supported by mobility support system (MSS), which expands the field of activities of PMV. This vehicle, which is called RT-Mover P-type 2, shows adequate mobility performance in urban area. A strength of it is that it realize both a leg mode and a wheel mode in a simple mechanism. In this paper, we introduce a whole system integrated with both PMV and MSS, and evaluate basic mobility performance by itself experimentally.
