Hybrid architectures of mobile robots
Vyšín M.
pages 331 - +7p., full text

Hybrid robots for use in the environment hardly accessible or dangerous for humans are developed currently. Mainly inspection and repair robots are in the centre of interest. They are designated for searching buildings, where they are looking for the dangerous substances, objects and persons. According to the type of robot, they can eventually repair defects in places hardly accessible by humans. The hybrid robot consists of several different locomotive apparatus. Two types of locomotive mechanisms are usually combined, for example wheel – leg, belt – wheel. Using more kinds of locomotive mechanisms we can utilize the advantages of particular types and minimize (eventually eliminate) their disadvantages. We can reach high operating velocity and considerable maneuverability in heterogeneous landscape due to the appropriate combination of locomotive mechanisms.
