AZIMUT has four independent articulations that can be wheels (as shown above), legs or tracks, or a combination of these.  By changing the direction of its articulations, AZIMUT is also capable of moving sideways without changing its orientation, making it omnidirectional. All these capabilities provide the robot with the ability to move in tight areas.  AZIMUT is designed to be highly modular, placing for instance the actuators in the articulations so that the wheels can be easily replaced by leg-track articulations for all-terrain operations. Stability and compliance of the platform are enhanced by adding a vertical suspension and using elastic actuators for the motorized direction of AZIMUT’s articulations. An elastic element is placed in the actuation mechanism and a sensor is used to measure its deformation, allowing to sense and control the torque at the actuator’s end. This should improve robot motion over uneven terrains, making the robot feel the surface on which it operates. Mechatronic modules, such as the wheel-motor that is used in all configurations, use a distributed processing architecture with multiple microcontrollers communicating through shared data buses. AZIMUT&#039;s design provides a rich framework to create a great variety of robots for indoor and outdoor uses&lt;del style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;, which makes it one of the most advanced wheeled robotic platforms available&lt;/del&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot; data-marker=&quot;+&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;AZIMUT addresses the challenge of making multiple mechanisms available for locomotion on the same robotic platform.

Stability and compliance of the platform are enhanced by adding a vertical suspension and using elastic actuators for the motorized direction of AZIMUT’s articulations.  An elastic element is placed in the actuation mechanism and a sensor is used to measure its deformation, allowing to sense and control the torque at the actuator’s end. This should improve robot motion over uneven terrains, making the robot &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;feel &lt;/ins&gt;the surface on which it operates. Mechatronic modules, such as the wheel-motor that is used in the wheel and the leg-track configurations, and the use of a distributed processing architecture with multiple microcontrollers communicating through shared data buses. AZIMUT&#039;s design provides a rich framework to create a great variety of robots for indoor and outdoor uses, and makes it one of the most advanced wheeled robotic platforms available.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
