Abstract
This paper describes the work of the RoboRescueTeam
FH-Wels developing and building an autonomous rescue robot. The
team consists of research associates and students at the University of
Applied Sciences Upper Austria.
This paper includes the preliminary results which are achieved so
far about map building, localization and autonomous victim identification.
Furthermore the implementation of 2D Laser Range Finder
(LRF) and a novel mechanism with a dynamic drive system for locomotion
is described. Additionally the construction of a modular
robotic arm is introduced. A thermo camera and several other sensors
are attached at the very end of this robotic arm which are used
for victim detection.
