Design and development of wall climbing robot

Abstract

This research work presents the design of a robot capable of climbing vertical and rough planes, such as stucco walls. Such a capacity offers imperative non military person and military preferences, for example, observation, perception, look and recover and actually for diversion and amusements. The robot's locomotion is performed using rack and pinion mechanism and adhesion to wall is performed by sticking using suction cups. The detailed design is modelled and fabrication is performed. It utilizes two legs, each with two degrees of freedom. And a central box containing the required mechanisms to perform the locomotion and adhesion is designed to carry any device to perform works on wall. A model of the robot is fabricated in a workshop using general tools. This model show how the mechanisms in the robot will work and how they are assembled together.
