Semi-Autonomous Mobile Hexapod Unmanned Ground Robot With Camera based Navigation For Military Reconnaissance And Ethological Research (SAMHUGR)
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Computer and Communication Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Conventionally reconnaissance vehicles used in military application have a wheel based design. Such wheel based robots have a major disadvantage of being unadaptive to rough terrain. These robots do not have the capacity to seamlessly navigate through uneven terrain with potholes that can trap the wheels. Naturally certain insects have octopod shaped exoskeleton. When a similar design approach is incorporated in to rohots instead of wheels, the problem of traversing rough terrain is solved. A hexapod design i.e six legged robot can use a wide range of motions to navigate out of any obstacle in the terrain. With such an adaptive motion, this type of robot can be remotely controlled to make it a semi-autonomous robot for Military Reconnaissance And Ethological Research.
