Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To collect ambient information (for example abnormal information) without lowering accuracy while reducing a cost needed in an external information collecting means such as a fixed sensor.
SOLUTION: A robot 1 is provided with a robot mounted sensor 13 for detecting ambient abnormality, a moving means 12 for making a robot main body 11 move, and a movement controlling part 16 for controlling the moving means 12 so as to make the robot main body move to a moving destination decided in accordance with information detected by a fixed sensor fixed to a prescribed position outside the robot 1. The moving destination may be decided by the whole controlling part 21 of the robot main body 11 on the basis of information from each fixed sensor, and also may be decided by a center communicable with the robot 1 on the basis of the information from each fixed sensor. Since abnormality is detected by using both the each fixed sensor and the robot mounted sensor 13, the each fixed sensor with relative low accuracy and a low cost with an extent capable of detecting the existence/nonexistence of abnormality can be used.

Abstract: The present invention is a multi-purpose service robot for robust operation in all-terrain outdoor environments, is aimed to fulfill the requirements of a robotic platform that is able to support the development of real world applications in surveillance, agriculture, environmental monitoring, and other related domains. This demanding scenario motivated a design mainly focused around the reliability of the mechanical platform, the scalability of the control system, and the flexibility of its self-diagnosis and error recovery mechanisms. These are key features for actual service robots, however usually disregarded in robotics. The present invention is made of durable materials, and with no-slip quasi-omnidirectional kinematic characteristics shown to be adequate for rough terrain. Supported by a control system fully compliant with the widespread Robot Operating System (ROS), scalability is guaranteed. The integration of active self-diagnosis and error recovery mechanisms extends system functionality for long duration tasks.

Abstract: Bekannt sind ferngesteuerte Minensuch- und Räumfahrzeuge. Nachteilig ist, dass solche Fahrzeuge mit einer für militärische Einsätze ausreichenden Qualität an Autonomie mit verfügbarer Technologie nicht hinreichend realisierbar sind.
Hier schlägt die vorliegende Lösung vor, derartige Fahrzeuge in der Kombination eines bemannten Master-Fahrzeugs (1) und eines unbemannten Slave-Fahrzeugs (2) einzusetzen, wobei die Reihenfolge, das Master-Fahrzeug (1) vor oder hinter dem Slave-Fahrzeug (2) anzuordnen wahlweise erfolgten kann. Beide Fahrzeugarten (Master, Slave) können ohne Funktionseinschränkung unbemannt aber auch bemannt eingesetzt werden. Die technische Ausstattung eines Fahrzeugs kann zudem so ausgeführt werden, dass es wahlweise als Master-Fahrzeug (1) oder als Slave-Fahrzeug (2) eingesetzt werden kann. Der Einsatz ist jedoch nicht auf Minensuch- und Räumfahrzeugen beschränkt.

Abstract: A robot includes a robot sensor for sensing abnormality around the robot, moving means for moving the robot main body, and a movement control unit for controlling the moving means so that the robot main body is moved to a destination determined according to the information sensed by a fixed−position sensor fixed to a predetermined position outside the robot. The moving destination may be determined by the total control unit of the robot main body according to the information from the fixed−position sensors or by a center communicating with the robot according to the information from the fixed−position sensors. Since abnormality is sensed by the fixed−position sensors together with the robot sensor, the fixed−position sensors may have low accuracy obtained at a low cost. That is, by reducing the cost required for means for collecting external information such as the fixed−position sensor, it is possible to provide a monitoring system capable of collecting ambient information (such as abnormality information) without lowering the accuracy.
