Terrestrial mobile robots face diverse topographies while in field missions. Rough terrains cause the platform to oscillate, which is undesirable for some tasks. Robotic platforms with active tracked flippers can use such mechanisms to reach and maintain a leveled configuration while halted or moving. Thus, this work presents a posture controller that regulates the robot's orientation and contact ...
