Abstract:

Conventional mobile robots typically use a wheel or crawler mechanism for locomotion. However, these robots often get stuck in narrow spaces. To mitigate this issue, we propose an innovative flexible mobile robot named “MOLOOP” in this study. The proposed robot has double-looped and hermetically-sealed structure and all ground-contact-area moves to the same direction. Three synchronized flexible crawlers generate the driving force within the robot body. The crawler, named “HS crawler,” comprises of loop-connected flexible bags. The entire body of the robot is flexible; therefore, the robot can

Abstract:

Finding victims in disaster debris is the priority in search-and-rescue operations. Attempts to use robots and other mobile devices instead of humans involve such problems as 1) operating when pressed from 4 sides, 2) difficulty in continuing operation or becoming inoperable when overturned, and 3) robot size restricting mobility on uneven terrain. We developed a robot overcoming these problems and surveying debris too closely packed and/or dangerous for human workers to enter.

Abstract:

Based on the large-scale wall-pressing three-legged crawler pipeline inspection robot, our team proposed a cornering algorithm based on space constraints, that aims to better control the smooth operation of the pipeline robot in the pipeline. This algorithm is aimed at large robots that use an electric telescopic rod structure to replace the elastic structure on traditional small robots. The electric telescopic rod structure meets the large-scale weight change of the robot and provides sufficient supporting force. However, this structure also makes it difficult for the robot to automatically a

Abstract:

Carrying out firefighting activities at disaster sites is extremely difficult. Therefore, robots that support and enhance these operations are required. In this paper, a crawler robot that tracks the moving path of a firefighter is proposed. It is commonly believed that trained firefighters select the best route; thus, it was assumed that this route is the easiest for the crawler robot as well. Using two 3D light detection and ranging sensors, once the firefighter’s coordinates are detected, the coordinates are combined with 3D simultaneous localization and mapping results, then a target path

Abstract:

Legged mobile robots, which differ from wheeled and crawler, need not avoid all obstacles by altering the path in the obstacle avoidance task. Because, legged mobile robots can get over or stride some obstacles, depending on the obstacle configuration and the current state of the robot. Legged mobile robots muse have suitable motion for each leg. We propose body motion control of a quadruped robot using a neural network (NN) for an obstacle avoidance task. Each leg motion is calculated by robot kinematics using body motion from the NN. NN design parameters are tuned off-line by a genetic algor

Recently a large variety of robots are available on the global market for a reasonable price. Often it turns out that even though a robot has a high-quality hardware and architecture, an original software of the robot may have a number of drawbacks or lacks some important features, which are required for a particular application of the robot. In such cases a user may decide to implement new libraries and functionalities using a provided by a manufacturer application programming interfaces as in most cases code of a commercial robot system is not an open-source.

Abstract:

In this work we present a soft crawler fabricated using a magneto-active elastomer. The crawler is controlled by an external magnetic field to produce two locomotion patterns: peristaltic and caterpillar crawling. Due to its structural simplicity, low mass, wirelessly controlled actuation and compliant body the design of this crawler has the potential to address the key challenges faced by existing crawling robots. Experimental data were gathered to evaluate the performance of the crawler locomotion in a pipe. The results validated the mathematical models proposed to estimate the distance trav

Abstract:

Today, terrestrial robots are used in a multitude of fields and for performing multiple missions. This paper introduces the novel development of a family of crawling terrestrial robots capable of changing very quickly depending on the missions they have to perform. The principle of novelty is the use of a load-bearing platform consisting of two independent propulsion systems. The operational platform, which handles the actual mission, is attached (plug and play) between the two crawler propulsion systems. The source of inspiration is the fact that there are a multitude of intervention robots i

Rugged terrains, including much of the earth's surface, other planets, and many man-made structures, are inaccessible to wheeled and tracked vehicles. This has inspired research into legged vehicles.

This dissertation research explores and advances a novel vehicle concept that uses passive legs attached to an actuated multibody structure.

These vehicles can execute turns by revolving the left and right crawlers differently and with slip. Turning on a slope can cause slippage. However, making narrow turns is required in agriculture.

Abstract:

Fossil fuel power plants are complex systems containing multiple components that create extreme environments for the purpose of extracting usable energy. Failures in the system can lead to increased down time for the plant, reduction of power and significant cost for repairs. In the past, inspections and maintenance of the plant's superheater tubes has been predominantly manual, laborious, and extremely time consuming. This is due to the pipe's small diameter size (between 1.3 and 7.6 cm) and the coiled structure of the tubing. In addition, the tubes are often stacked close to each other, limi
