Landmine detection using an autonomous terrain-scanning robot
This paper describes the software of a terrain scanning robot capable of autonomously manipulating a typical handheld detector for remote sensing of buried landmines in a manner similar to a human operator. The autonomous manipulation of the detector on unknown terrain requires an online terrain map to generate an obstacle free path for the end effector of the robot. The software includes a two...
متن کاملMultirobot autonomous landmine detection using distributed multisensor information aggregation
We consider the problem of distributed sensor information fusion by multiple autonomous robots within the context of landmine detection. We assume that different landmines can be composed of different types of material and robots are equipped with different types of sensors, while each robot has only one type of landmine detection sensor on it. We introduce a novel technique that uses a market-...
متن کاملIntegrated Mobile Robot System for Landmine Detection
In this paper, we discuss the integration process of a mobile robot and multi-channel metal detector system intended for humanitarian demining applications within the EU FP7 TIRAMISU project. The paper describes how a standard tele-operated Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) robot was upgraded with electronics, sensors, computing power, motor control units and power sources, such that it becomes...
متن کاملLandmine Detection Using Radar
Landmines are affecting the lives and livelihood of millions of people around the world. The video impulse ground penetrating radar system for detection for small and shallow buried objects has been developed. The hardware combines commercially available components with components specially developed or modified for being used in the system. The GPR system has been desired to measure accurately...
متن کاملMarwa: A Rough Terrain Landmine Detection Robot For Low Budgets
Mechanically efficient and innovatively designed robots equipped with reliable detection techniques can not only help in greatly reducing the time needed to clear an area inflicted with land-mines but also reduce the life threats to individual deminers. However, prohibitive costs and reliability issues have thus far been hindering the wide scale deployment of robotic technologies in this area, ...
