Wireless Teleoperated Mobile Robot Prototype for Inspection in High Risk Places

Abstract

This article presents the design and implementation of a wireless teleoperated mobile robot prototype, intended for the inspection of high risk locations where they could be developing criminal activities with the objective of safeguard the integrity and security of law enforcement officers. Robot design combines special geometry with posibility of high materials deformity and displacement, in order to withstand a free fall of up to 2 m, has an autonomy of up to 50 min, is manipulated by remote control with the possibility of real-time audio and video transmission at a distance of 250 m with sight line and 90 m when there are obstacles; this document is organized as follows: Sect. 1 presents a brief description of mobile robotics and commercial applications, Sect. 2 describes the methodology used for the design of the prototype, Sect. 3 presents the implementation of the prototype, Sect. 4 presents the results achieved and finally, in Sect. 5 the main conclusions of this document are presented.
