QUADRUPED ROBOT FOR LANDMINE DETECTION AND NETWORK BASED LOCATION SHARING

Abstract
Abstract - Landmine detonations have severe impact on society and nature. In war stricken areas it has led to loss of innocent lives of locals as well as army personnel. Even now detection is done with heavy machinery and human expertise on the field which proves to be dangerous and expensive in terms of cost of life and equipment. Hence there is a need to implement autonomous systems in the field that can help save lives more effectively. Extensive literature survey has been done on the topics of development of robots for disaster management and for landmine detection, improvements in sensors to find the tricky or deep buried mines and future scope of demining the system itself to make the path safe to travel. This paper gives an overview of the methodology undertaken to develop a Quadruped Robot (instead of the wheeled robot that usually used for most projects), understanding of different gaits that can be used in the field, use low cost and suitable materials, development of a system for metal mine detection and obstacle handling and ways to relay the mine and robot location to home base in cases when there is and isn’t any network conditions.
