WALKING ROBOT FOR EXPLORING UNDERWATER ENVIRONMENT EVEN UNDER THE WATER WITH HIGH TURBIDITY AND HIGH TIDAL CURRENT

摘要

PURPOSE: A walking robot for exploring underwater environment even under the water with high turbidity and high tidal current is provided to get over the tidal current, and to walk on the bottom of the sea.;CONSTITUTION: A walking robot(100) for exploring underwater environment even under the water with high turbidity and high tidal current comprises a streamlined body(110), articulated walking legs(121,122,124,126), a control unit, a leg driving unit, a sensing unit, and a communication unit. The articulated walking legs are mounted to the left and right sides of the body, respectively. The control unit is installed in the body, and controls the movement of the robot. The leg driving unit generates a signal for driving the articulated walking legs. The sensing unit senses the contact between the body and other objects. The communication unit transmits the signals with external devices.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013
