A Multi-Sensor Suspension Robot for Autonomous Detection and Surveillance

Abstract:

In this paper, a multi-sensor based suspension robot has been designed for the application of autonomous detection and surveillance. For fire fighters and rescuers, the disaster relief works are difficulty performed in the tunnels because of its constricted space. To reduce the losses of accident, the safety of tunnel should be ordinarily kept under surveillance. In the design of suspension robot, BASIC Stamp has been utilized as its control kernel and multiple sensors have been applied for detecting the emergencies. Once the surveillance center is announced of the emergencies, the fire fighters and rescuers could timely execute the saving mission.
