Introduction
Problem statement and Objectives
animal researchers are unable to effectively gather data of subterranean species without destroying their burrows or tunnel systems.
Users
Researchers of subterranean animals or underground tunnel systems
Requirements
Users require an autonomous robot that traverses underground tunnel systems and maps them accordingly, without damaging the habitat of the subterranean animals.
Approach, milestones and deliverables
State-of-the-art
A robotics-oriented taxonomy of how ethologists characterize the traversability of animal environments surveys 21 studies of how ethologists characterize the environments through which animals traverse and groups the found characteristics into three broad catergories: local navigational constraints, surface properties, and global layout properties. From these the article makes four recommendations to aid roboticists in selecting a suitable robot for particular environments, building testbeds for the testing and comparing of robots and the collection of data about an environment.
Burrowing rescue robot referring to a mole's shoveling motion proposes an novel inspecting robot designed to inspect survivors at landslide disaster sites. Its proposed propulsion method is inspired by the shveling motion of a mole.
