Abstract	This paper deals with the dynamics and motion control of a spherical robot designed for reconnaissance and unstructured hostile environment exploration. The robot in this paper has three DOFs and two inputs, of which the nature is a nonlinear and underactuated system with nonholonomic dynamic constraints. The improved construction of two pendulums offers novel motion principle of spherical robot, which is moving simultaneously actuated by both eccentric moment and inertial moment generated by the two pendulums. Meanwhile the mobility is enhanced when the robot behaves dynamically. The emphasis is placed on the linear motion and turning in place motion control. The dynamic model of linear motion is formulated on the basis of Lagrange equation, and a smooth trajectory planning method is proposed for linear motion. A feedback controller is constructed to ensure the accurate trajectory planning. Turning in place motion is an indispensable element of omni directional locomotion which can enhance the mobility of spherical robots. The dynamic model of turning in place motion is derived on the theory of moment of momentum, and a stick-slip principle is analyzed. The two motion control methods are validated by both simulations and prototype experiments.
