| Title |
Search and Rescue Quadruped Robot |
| Supervisor |
R. Selmic |
| Description |
The task at hand will be to build a scaled down search and rescue quadruped robot used
for human retrieval. The device should be able to navigate irregular terrains taking
advantage of its legged mode of locomotion. It should also be able to simultaneously map
its environment and navigate it, avoiding any obstacles that are on its path. The path can
either be controlled manually by the user or by the onboard navigation system (by setting
a way-point to a location in 3D space), thus incorporating autonomous operation.
Mapping information could be provided beforehand if available. |
