Abstract

This paper explains a development of an environment measuring system mounted on leg-wheel hybrid vehicle for rescue mission. Recently, there are many studies of rescue robots reported in various conferences in the world wide. The most robots aim at searching victims of some disaster. This study also aims to development of a rescue robot based on a quadruped walking robot, although the most rescue robots are crawler-type. The quadruped walking robot is equipped with rollers at the tip of the each leg. It performs roller-skates on a flat ground movement by utilizing the flexibility of the legs and walks on rough terrain as a walking. This paper also shows the three-dimensional maps as results of the 3D scanning experiments with Laser Range Finder mounted on the robot.
