In this paper, a multi-legged robot that can be assembled by self-balance robots that have two multi-degree-of-freedom limbs with wheel installed on the end of each limb is proposed. This type of robot has a more efficient way to travel all kinds of territory: not like normal muti-legged robots which has to use legs to move on flat surface like a roads, this type of robot can move like vehicle using wheels on the end of its legs; and not like two wheels self-balance vehicles which cannot travel on rocky surface, this type of robot can use multi-degree-of-freedom limbs to walk on complex surface. And by separate to several single robots, this type of robot can move through some narrow territory. And by combined as a multi-legged robot, this type of robot can transport much heavier payload than a single self-balance robot.
