Abstract: The present invention provides a mobile robot that can simultaneously absorb an impact received from an uneven road surface while moving and estimate the position or orientation of the mobile robot while functioning. The mobile robot according to the present invention has an operation mechanism having a multi-jointed arm, and a movement mechanism that causes the operation mechanism to move, the mobile robot being characterized in that: the movement mechanism has a first support part and a second support part, which support the weight of the movement mechanism; and the second support part is installed at a position that is nearer to an outer peripheral section, in terms of the movement direction of the movement mechanism, than is the installation position of the first support part.

Abstract: Provided are a tantalum solid electrolytic capacitor having a reduced leakage current and a method for manufacturing the tantalum solid electrolytic capacitor. A dielectric layer of the solid electrolytic capacitor includes a first dielectric layer in contact with an anode and a second dielectric layer covering the first dielectric layer and making contact with an electrolyte layer. The first dielectric layer is made of an oxide of the anode, the oxide consisting essentially of an amorphous component. The second dielectric layer is formed of dielectric particles having a higher dielectric constant than the first dielectric layer. The dielectric particles includes first dielectric particles in contact with the first dielectric layer and second dielectric particles out of contact with the first dielectric layer. The first dielectric particles have a smaller average particle diameter than the second dielectric particles.
