Abstract
The Authors have developed a tracked mobile robot that consists of two tracks and two arms. Two tracks surround the robot body. Two 4-DOF arms are attached to left and right front corner of the robot body. One arm has a 1-DOF hand at the end for manipulating an object. Another has a rubber at the end. The robot is therefore able to handle and carry objects on the way when it is moving. A Pan-Tilt CCD camera which can control pan and tilt angles is mounted on the robot with an image processing board in order to detect target objects. This paper describes mechanisms and control system of the robot.
