Whegs are a series of robots developed at the Biologically Inspired Robotics Laboratory at Case Western Reserve University. Whegs utilize a strategy of locomotion that combines the simplicity of wheels with the obstacle-clearing advantages of its foot.

The Whegs robots were inspired by the Prolero robot, designed in 1996 at the European Space Agency, and the RHex robot, developed by a multiuniversity effort funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency[1] .
