Abstract

There is a demand for an off-road mobile robot having a high mobility and a wide movement range in a complicated environment such as a disaster site in which a person cannot enter. However, even if conventional moving mechanisms such as wheels, legs, crawlers are used, it may be difficult to move such as a steep slope. Therefore, in this research, we propose a method to fix wires directly to the external environment using elastic telescopic arm. And in this paper, we aim to control the tip position by the bending motion of the arm, and we show the results of the experiments on the relationship between winding value of a rope and the tension and the tip position. And we measured accuracy of the tip position control by winding value of a rope.
