Abstract

In this paper, a miniature reconnaissance robot with the functions of anti-impact and semi-autonomous motion is presented. The throwbot could be thrown or shot in the building by the soldier for real-time detection in anti-terrorist scene. A prototype has been developed to illustrate the concept. The finite element analysis and thrown experiments confirm the anti-impact ability of the mechanism. Besides working in telecontrol mode, the robot could explore regional area autonomously, which simplifies the teleoperator's operation. The experiments show that the behaviour-based intelligent control strategy is fit for the robot's application at last.
