Abstract | The purpose of this thesis is to develop a stair-climbing robot which can able to perform in the process of climbing and landing by improving the combination of crawler and lag type. The combination of two different mechanism make more efficient in carrying load, reduce friction on ground or climbing and cannot get the backward force due to gravitational force. This research also focuses on developing of driving in auto and manual system. This robot was designed as using two microcontroller parts to perform the multi functions. The wireless communication is used for data transfer between wireless remote control and vehicle. Sensor detection system also use for safety in auto driving. As a final result, this robot can run with the bout speed of manual wheelchair and also can climb on standard size of stairs. |
