Abstract
The various types of robots that can perform the victim search and rescue at disaster situations such as earthquakes have been developed. In order to discover disaster victims in a vast disaster area at an early stage, many rescue robots are carried to a disaster site, and it can be estimated that it is necessary to carry out investigation activities simultaneously and frequently. We proposed a small search robot that can run the irregular ground in the disaster area and go into the very small space such as gaps of the rubble. This robot also can produce in commercial quantity by employing a simple locomotion mechanism. This paper describes the design development of a small robot and the locomotion characteristics of this robot using a basic experiment.
