Humanitarian mine detecting six-legged walking robot and hybrid neuro walking control with position/force control

Abstract Now as many as 90 million anti-personnel mines are left buried and continue to kill or injure many people all over the world. The Cold War has already ended. However, regional wars and conflicts continue to break out one after another and new mines are being buried. As a collaboration of the world’s top-level nations in robotics, the leading countries should promote surveys and research to detect and dispose of these anti-personnel mines for the ultimate good of the environment by using its advanced robotics technologies. Our project has developed and studied high instrumentation technologies for mine detection, then mine detection strategies using measuring equipment mounted on walking robots based on six-legged teleoperated high technology.
