Adopting the concept of the tactile wheel, which considers the interaction between the wheel and the ground, this paper simulates reinforcement learning to show the usefulness of tactile sensing for autonomous wheeled robots on irregular terrain and to clarify the characteristics of the information to be acquired. A wheeled robot model with a wheel-on-leg structure is created and tested on two types of irregular terrain. The tactile information from each wheel is used as part of the reinforcement learning state. The average return and sample efficiency respectively increase by factors of 1.18 and 2.21 on uneven terrain. On fractal terrain, they increase by factors of 1.31 and 2.51 times, respectively, confirming the usefulness of tactile information. Tactile wheels using analog tactile information perform better in terms of adaptability to unknown terrain.
