“…Bogie mechanism is used to overcome rugged territories, and the detection robot has the stability margins for different road conditions to predict the potential of a tipping-over before any maneuver [30]. In Gavilanes et al [31], proposed an instrumented robotic arm to replace the human role in the demining applications [31]. While, Prado et al conducted a sensor fusion model to classify landmines in a scanned floor area.…”

Recent technologies for robotics have been offered an effective and efficient solution to safeguard workers from risks in their work environments. These risks involve radioactive, toxic, explosive and mines. In this paper, design and implement computer robot based on metal detection as well as avoiding obstacles automatically. The proposed wireless controlled robotic vehicle can be used in metal detection applications such as landmine detection, obstacles avoidance, selecting best routing without imposing human's harms and workforce aspects. The robotic wheel can sense the obstacles that positioning at ahead of its path, and also avoids the obstacles forward, left and right of its routes. The robot is controlled by using Bluetooth wireless communication to interface between the controller and the implemented robot. Furthermore, sensor IR (FC-03) for the metal detector and used ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04) for objects or obstacles sensing. The presented controlled robotic designed for desert and dry soil that can replace the human role in avoiding obstacles and metal detection capabilities. The produced robot was useful due to it can detect metals and avoiding obstacles consecutively besides it was effective to select the best route based on the intelligent technique that adopted, the predefined metals by using an intelligent decision maker for route finder in a flat surface environment.

“…Moreover, the robots used in demining applications still accomplish the process sequentially [13]. In other words, they interleave the scanning task and task of moving the robot forwards, switching from one to the other.…”

“…This complicates the design of the system especially in regard of the floating base of a legged platform since it desirable keep the end-effector moving with as never constant velocity as possible [14]. Therefore, instead of designing the end-effector trajectory as an arc [13], a linear path is suggested. To achieve this, two lines in adjacent boxes are blended by a semi-circular path.…”

In this paper, we introduce a new scanning technique for detecting landmines and unexploded ordnance (UXO). The manipulator arm carried by a hexapod robot is capable of scanning rough terrain using a typical mine detector. To speed up the landmine detection and marking, both scanning and moving forward will be done simultaneously. The controller will perform two tasks. The first task is to keep the sensor-head in a fixed level with respect to the ground and the second task is to keep the base of the arm within a specified range of position and orientation. A coupling between the velocity of the end-effector and the velocity of the manipulator base (robot body) is created to ensure the efficiency of the whole process. To verify the feasibility of our design, three experiments will be performed using simulation in MATLAB. The manipulator was modelled using SolidWorks.
