Process Design for Autonomous Car Mining 1st Prototype “ACM1PT” to Help on Exploration Task on Outdoor Environments

Abstract:

The follow paper explains the process design of the development of a mobile robotic vehicle which main purpose is to aid on task of exploration on the mining sector. The paper shows the whole process from the customer needs through the conceptual sketch to the definitive design. It also describes mathematical considerations for the selection of the motors for locomotion and steering. Followed by mechanical strength simulations in order to choose the right material and finally simulations of the behavior of the robotic vehicle suspension.
