This paper highlights the main functional features of the first prototype of WheTLHLoc, a hybrid leg-wheel-track ground mobile robot. WheTLHLoc is conceived as a general-purpose surveillance and inspection platform, which combines several distinctive features: tracked locomotion on irregular and/or yielding grounds, high efficiency wheeled locomotion on flat and compact terrains, step/stairs climbing and descent ability to allow motion in structured and unstructured environments. The architecture of the hybrid locomotion system is outlined, then the internal mechanical arrangement and the actuation and control layout are discussed.
