Abstract

This paper gives the details of the design and technologies to be incorporated in the Robotic Platform of Team ‘Shaurya’ for the RoboCup Rescue Robot League, 2011. The entry consists of a tracked robotic vehicle. The robot will be equipped with state of the art sensors for localization, mapping and victim identification. The robot will be capable of navigating autonomously in unknown environments while detecting and locating human victims and determining their conditions. The robot would possess a camera mounted robotic arm for grasping different objects. The entire robotic system along with the operator station would be designed to provide the operator maximum information so as to plan effective and efficient victim evacuation strategies
