AbstractThis thesis proposes a new stabilizing-mechanism of a single-wheel robot. This mechanism utilizes a pendulum moving to control center of mass (C.M.) position. A single-wheel robot has so high mobility behavior that can be applied to serve many fields of works. Roughness terrain environment is one of work environment suit for this robot. Narrow terrain is also suit for this robot, because of its configuration. A single-wheel robot is statically unstable but dynamically stable. To achieve statically stable, stabilizing-mechanism is added to the robot. By applying the available control algorithms to the robot, automatic statically unstable is overcome. Experiment is done during design and implementation stage in order to know and correct its errors
