No.6 [ Team Work ]
Classification : Disaster Rescue robot
Name : ROBAID-X
Date : 2005.12 ~ 2006.03

Overview
The scene of disaster is dangerous environment open to secondary disaster. In order to reduce such dangerousness, we developed a remote-controlled caterpillar robot which has the ability to move on uneven surfaces ( including stairs, slopes ) and can produce real-time image and surrounding data for general overview of the scene of disaster. Also, its application can be a mine detecting robot, military robot, night guard robot, fire-fighting robot, etc.

Description
1. Specification
- Weight: 60kg
- Size: 490 x 770 x 520 [mm]
- Communication system: Blue Tooth RS-232 serial communication
- Motors: Geared DC Motor 60W (75:1) 2EA
- MCU: AVR128 6EA
- Sensors: Ultrasonic Sensors 6EA, PSD Infrared Sensors 1EA, Temperature sensors, Humidity sensors, Illumination sensors, TILT sensor( X/Y Axis ), Digital compass Sensors
- ETC: Graphic LCD at the back, Pan-Tilt wireless camera, Shock absorbers

2. Functions
- Primary movement: Driving ( front, back, left, right)
- Other driving mode: Super-fast driving, Going up stairs, Slope driving, Night driving, etc
- Display: Displays real-time environmental data on attached LCD at the back.
Transmits the data to the window of the operator’s PC.
- Remote control : ROBAID-X and its Pan-tilt camera can be controlled by operator’s PC.
3. My contributions
- Designed the platform (H/W) using CAD tools, controlled motors
- Sensor signal processing, designed circuits ( power management circuits )
4. Major Development
- Drive Part: Develops smooth driving with using DC motor / Gear / Caterpillar / Encoder.
- Control Part: Develops an effective transmission method among each part.
- Communication Part: Develops a smooth communication between Robaid-x and PC
- Environmental Information Part: Perceives the environmental data with using Temperature, Humidity, Illumination, Tilt, Infrared Sensors.
- Location Information Part: Perceives location information with using Ultrasonic Sensors, Earth Magnetic Sensors.
- Image Information Part: Transmits the real-time situation through the attached camera.
- Application Software: Controls the robot, checks the current status of the robot, and constructs a general overview of the area through received data.
- Detecting victims algorithm: Creates an algorithm that enables the robot to navigate surroundings and to detect victims for itself.
