| Abstract | − The paper provides a shelled track using bent track shoes and a dual-camera system for flexible monotread mobile track (FMT). Some previous prototypes of FMT could traverse on various rough terrains. However, an edge of the track shoe deflected when they touched to a prominence of obstacles and interfered to the body. The side surface of the FMT was not covered with the track shoe; thus, the weak parts made of ABS plastic were broken. Moreover, there is no practical camera system for teleoperation of FMT. Generally, a bird’s-eye view is practical for teleoperation of a small ground vehicle. However, a camera (sometime with a long arm) and a laser sensor for the bird’s-eye view implemented on the robot’s deck is not suitable to take advantage of FMT, i.e., almost all the surface is covered by the track belt. Therefore, we introduce a prototype, RT05-COBRA with shelled track shoes, propose a dual-camera system covered a wide-range in a horizontal plane for FMT, and evaluate its mobility under teleoperation. |
