INTRODUCTION:
(A) (B)
(A) L1 <L2
In this case, after each stair climbing, L2 becomes greater and after several
climbing it will be equal or greater than b (L2 ≥b). In this case, the wheel is at the
corner of the stair and the robot will fall down to lower stair and a slippage will be
occurred.
It should be noted that after each slippage, the robot will continue its smooth
motion until next slippage.
(B) L1 >L2
In this case, after each stair climbing, L2 becomes smaller until the wheel hits the
corner of the stair and the robot will encounter difficulties in climbing stairs. It
should be noted that his slippage will continue in all stair climbing, but doesn’t
stop robot motion.
MSRox Control System :
The MSRox control system is a microcontroller based system that includes
actuators, a sensor and a keypad.
MSRox’s Sensor :
MSRox can recognize stairs and obstacles with the help of a photoelectric
sensor which is connected to the microcontroller board and sends signals to it
when its rays hit the stairs or obstacles.
MSRox’s Actuators:
To answer this question it must be said that if such an accident occurs, MSRox
will only go back smoothly to the latest stair which it has been climbing it and will
not happen to fall .
Obstacles traversing:
The MSRox can traverse any terrain that has obstacles with
maximumheight17cm.
