Abstract

This project is to develop a rope climbing robot that has the ability to climb a rope by itself or manually. This robot is built with hardware and software interfaces. The objective here is to produce an efficient, low powered and cost effective self-climbing robot that is able to reach the top of the rope in the least amount of time. The robot is using Arduino microcontroller as the brain. Besides that, the servomotors are used to build the movement and gripper of the robot. Generally, the robot control algorithm is designed so that the robot is able to move both horizontal and vertical direction. The robot can work in automatic mode or manual through RF signals from an RF transmitter. Furthermore, the robot can be attached with external circuits to serve various tasks such as by fixing a small video camera to offer "visual access" in places where access by human presence is difficult and dangerous.
