A Novel Reconfigurable Robot for Urban Search and Rescue
This paper presents a novel mobile robot for urban search and rescue based on reconfiguration. The system consists of three identical modules; actually each module is an entire robotic system that can perform distributed activities. To achieve highly adaptive locomotion capabilities, the robot’s serial and parallel mechanisms form an active joint, enabling it to change its shape in three dimens...
متن کاملCASTER: A Robot for Urban Search and Rescue
Designing robots for urban search and rescue (USAR) is an extremely challenging task, because it violates many of the assumptions made in the average robotics lab. Robocup Rescue [Jacoff et al., 2004] is an international competition that provides an opportunity to measure performance in such environments objectively. The competition allows for the evaluation of new and evolving sensing, hardwar...
متن کاملA Human-Robot Interface for Urban Search and Rescue
This paper describes the Swarthmore College entry in the 2003 Urban Search and Rescue [USR] Event at the 2003 American Association for Artificial Intelligence Robot Competition. The primary focus of Swarthmore’s entry was the development of a fast, responsive user interface for effectively tele-operating a robot with some autonomous capability. This interface was inspired by first-person video ...
متن کاملA Novel Modular Mobile Robot Prototype for Urban Search and Rescue
The last few years have witnessed an increasing interest in reconfigurable mobile robotic technologies (Yim, M.; et al., 2000). The applications include the following areas: industrial inspection (Granosik, G.; Hansen, M. G.; Borenstein, J. 2005), conducting surveillance, urban search and rescue, military reconnaissance and space exploration (Yim, M.; et al., 2003). Reconfigurable robots consis...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Scout Robot for Urban Search and Rescue
A group of miniature mobile robots called Scouts were tested in the Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) course used in the RoboCup Rescue competition at IJCAI 2001. This testing was to evaluate the utility of using small robots with limited mobility and sensing constraints in the unstructured and chaotic environments present in disaster areas where USAR operations are required. The Scouts and their ...
