PROF. MS. EKESHWARI A. RANGARI, PROF. SUMED G. UPARWAT

Abstract :

Robonoid is a lightweight, back-packable, multi-terrain robot capable of detecting a variety of devices without making any harm to the operator. It helps bomb disposal experts to find and deactivate improvised explosive devices (IEDs). It is a remote controlled robot. It is equipped with wireless camera to send video signals to monitor the robot and the surroundings. It has a light source, so that it can work at night and a robot car which gives the platform for mounting gun, arm, light sources and camera. The robot also has a full functional arm and is capable of movement of 5 degree with the scope of 360 degree around. This makes it very flexible. It also has the ability to place small charges to disrupt suspect devices, and further enhancements, including the incorporation of wire-cutters, have been implemented. Robonoid has the ability to send video footage back to the operator at a safe distance thereby enabling troops to assess a situation prior to moving forward or entering a structure, potentially safeguarding lives. The RCV can be used to assist with the disposal of roadside bombs whilst allowing troops to remain at a safe distance.
