Abstract

In this paper, a crawling traveling wave detection robot is presented with obstacle-climbing capability. The robot produces a traveling wave which can move forward by producing an advancing sine wave, using a single motor to connect with a helix pole. When the motor rotates the helix, the links cancel the rotation along the axis of the helix and maintain a vertical motion. The design of the robot is unique and succinct. A kinematic model to analyze the motion of robot is constructed by considering the formulas of the trajectory and speed of the links. Numerical simulations are performed to validate the feasibility of the robot design and its characteristics.
