This paper presents the development of a terrain robot for mining support and data collection. The robot has been designed through the analysis of kinematic and dynamic properties of the terrain robot. Based on the requirements of the robot’s power and the load support, the solution of mechanism, actuator for the robot have been drawn. As a contribution to terrain robotic field, we present an original prototype of Mining Assistance Terrain Robot (MATRob). During development of the MATRob, a basically control design has been developed to increase the ability of integration, and ensure real-time control performance besides a custombuilt control panel for users. |
