Abstract

This paper presents a robot prototype designed to overcome the lack of current security monitoring system: low flexibility, limited monitoring range, disability of copping with sudden special circumstances. It’s designed and built for remote live-video security surveillance and object recognition and capture in highly structured small space environment in industrial field, involving remote controlling, live video taking, distance and position identifying of an object, trajectory planning and object capturing. The robot is controlled by means of human-machine interface. The operator drives the robotic device and performs the related tasks by means of a control user interface developed on android APP. The robot computer operates robot grasping and manipulation automatically, that is, performs the precise localization of a specific object, computes adequate capturing sequence and controls the motion (robot moving and object capturing) of all the mechanical components. Throughout this paper, the specific design of every module of the robotic device is presented. The device has been built. Related laboratory tests have been done to check the robot performance. Results show excellent robot controllability, targeted object finder and live field operations. Some figures and tables showing overall performance are given.
