ROBOCLIMBER: Control System Architecture

Description: The paper shows the complete system architecture of a walking and climbing robot developed to make slope consolidation, where heavy duty equipment is employed for drilling up to 20m holes. ROBOCLIMBER a quadruped robot whose development in founded under a Growth/Craft RTD project, and must operate on harsh conditions in order to make positioning and have to be capable of making the drilling tasks from a remote and safe place. The system architecture used to coordinate the manoeuvrability of the positioning, the drilling process, and the remote operation of the machine are explained.
