Development of a robot for exploring hazardous environments (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9786208211325)

The purpose of the collection robot is to help in situations where there is a threat to life, whether due to the suspicion of an explosive artefact, environments where there are flammable or toxic gases, allowing it to reconnoitre the environment using cameras and in some cases collect the material and take it to a safe place. Because it is remote-controlled, it has a supervisory system, allowing it to handle suspicious material without putting human life at risk. The components to be used in the robot's manufacture were chosen and its main characteristics and limitations identified, as well as the necessary adaptations. Then all the robot's hardware was assembled and its constructive capabilities were assessed, such as locomotion, moving the camera and the robotic arm, as well as reading sensors. The robot's capabilities include identifying the presence of smoke and some flammable gases in the environment, whether the object collected is emitting heat and, using the camera, recognising the environment and interacting with it by controlling the robotic arm and moving around. This work involves hardware, software and robotics.
