Advanced mobile robots for specific and difficult environments

Objective



There is an increasing need for machines that will carry out tasks in working environments requiring mobility for their execution. Significant areas among the broad variety of related application domains include: planetary exploration, underwater work, intervention in hazardous sites, mining, shipbuilding, waste handling, nuclear sites maintenance, building maintenance, fire fighting, forestry.

With this vast range of applications in view the project will cover the following subjects: the design of mechanisms that are specifically suited to operate in a given environment or for a given task; the perception and modelling of 3D environments; the on-board autonomous decision-making processes; the learning processes; the advanced programming environments; and the task level teleprogramming.

The research programme will benefit several related projects and systems such as: wall-climbing robots, multi-legged machines (for example the MARSHA, PRIAMOS and TRACMINER projects), the Mars rover, the KASTOR VALUE project and the ROTEX space robot.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
