Multisensor Demining Robot
The paper describes an advanced multisensor demining robot. The robot transport system is based on a simple structure using pneumatic drive elements. The robot has robust design and can carry demining equipment up to 100 kg over rough terrains. Due to the adaptive possibilities of pedipulators to obstacles, the robot can adjust the working position of the demining sensors while searching for mi...
متن کاملHumanitarian Demining Robot Gryphon
Mechanical systems or robots to assist landmine detection are expected to greatly improve quality of humanitarian demining tasks. These new systems could provide: i) safer operation; ii) advanced methods for automatic target recognition and discrimination; iii) consistent performance with less influence of “human-factors”; iv) better detection performance, i.e., higher probability of detection ...

متن کاملHexapod Robot for Humanitarian Demining
This paper presents the main characteristics of a hexapod robot designed and manufactured by the Centre for Automation and Robotics (CAR) CSIC-UPM, Spain. The main objective of this hexapod walking robot is carry out tasks for localisation of anti-personnel mines, using a scanning manipulator on-board with a metal detector installed on the tool centre point. Previous works done by other hexapod...
متن کاملIntelligent Multisensor Prodder for Training Operators in Humanitarian Demining
Manual prodding is still one of the most utilized procedures for identifying buried landmines during humanitarian demining activities. However, due to the high number of accidents reported during its practice, it is considered an outmoded and risky procedure and there is a general consensus about the need of introducing upgrades for enhancing the safety of human operators. With the aim of contr...
