Abstract | At present time, the wall-climbing robot is developed in various configurations for work on the wall. A simple wall-climbing robot has been designed in the configuration that uses legs to move on the wall. This thesis has the purpose to construct the wall-climbing robot in the new configuration that has the movement as the locomotion of the worm. Pneumatic system is mainly constructed the robot that has many devices, vacuum generator for generating the vacuum, suction cup for holding the robot on the wall, the solenoid valve for on/off the suction cup in different step. The mechanism of the robot has three degree of freedom to move in parallel with the wall. The robot control has two units, the AT89S8252 micro-controller and the interface unit. Finally, the C language program is used to develop the intelligence of this robot. |
