DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF ADJUSTABLE STAIR CLIMBING ROBOT

Abstract

In the present scenario the application of robots is quite common to reduce the human effort in several areas. The stair climbing robots are used to climb the stairs for different applications up to now, but the main disadvantage of the rugged terrain robots is not adjustable according to the structure of the stairs. To overcome this, we have developed an adjustable stair climbing robot to climb the stairs up and down according to the dimensions of the staircase by using adjustable frame. The main features of the robot include the platform which is attached to the adjustable frame to carry the materials up and down as per the motor capacity. The main application of this robot is to check the urban areas by carrying the materials on the platform for rescue operations.
