Abstract
This paper describes about a tree climbing robot using pneumatic actuators. A weight is very important factor for climbing robots. Almost of pneumatic actuators are light compared with other actuators. Therefore, a climbing robot becomes light due to apply pneumatic actuators. In this paper, a basic structure and locomotive mechanism of a tree climbing robot which is developed by us describes. We carried out a climbing experiment and confirmed a validity of the structure and locomotive mechanism of the robot.
