Abstract

This article describes a landmine-detection system that contains a landmine-detection mobile robot and a following mobile robot. In this system, the landmine-detection robot goes ahead, and uses a landmine detector and a GPS module to find a landmine, records the coordinates of its location, and transmits these coordinates to the following mobile robot via a wireless RF interface. The following robot can record the location and orientation of the landmine-detection robot and all the landmines in the region. The following robot moves close to the landmine, and programs a path to avoid obstacles and landmines automatically. The driving system of the landmine-detection mobile robot uses a microprocessor dsPIC 30F4011 as the core, and controls two DC servomotors to program the motion path. The user interface of the landmine-detection robot and the following robot uses Borland C++ Builder language to receive the location data. In the experimental results, the landmine-detection robot records the location of landmines using a GPS module, and transmits the locations to the following robot via a wireless RF interface. The following robot avoids the landmines, and improves the safety of people or materials being carried through the landmine area.
