| Abstract | Up until the present time, The highly building wall has always dangerous to human life
who necessarily works on the wall such as wall cleaning, but robotics is a well solution that
should be extremely developed to overcoming. A novel, simple wall-climbing robot has
been devised and prototyped which has many methods to design robot. This thesis has the
purpose to construct and develop a wall climbing robot. Pneumatic system method is
mainly to construct the robot which consists of many devices, vacuum generator for
holding, pneumatic cylinder for movement, solenoid valves for air line control and others.
In mechanic design, the leg mechanism is the main mechanical design task. The leg
mechanism has 2 degree of freedom moving in parallel and perpendicular direction with
the wall. The robot can move on the wall in diagonal line comparing with its body. The
robot control unit is specifically developed for the robot. It composes of 2 main units,
68HC 11 micro controller and interface unit. Lastly, intelligent algorithm is developed by
C++ language program that increases robot intelligence. |
