Abstract
This paper presents conceptual design and analysis of the rough terrain mobile robot. The requirement list of the robot is derived to make it possible to deliver small robots and communication equipment to certain place. In addition, detailed analysis of the existing mobile mechanisms is performed. Based on the requirement list and analysis, the proposed rough terrain mobile robot is systematically designed and through extensive simulations, its capability of moving on various rough terrains is successfully verified.
