The tele-operated robot may be deployed at hazardous, difficult and enemy intruded areas and controlled from a safe region. The structure of the spherical robot has many advantages over conventional mobile vehicles or humanoids. The ball shape of a spherical robot enables rolling in any direction on planar surfaces. Sensors and other electronics are completely inside the shell.
It is robust to the collisions and can manoeuvre in any direction. The camera mounted on the robot provides a real- time panoramic 360 visual feedback that provides awareness to the situation. The visual feedback transmitted to the operator also enables him/her to control the robot’s movement. A manually operated spherical robot has been designed that provides visual feedback for reconnaissance and search. The design of the robot can be easily modified to add sensors for collecting application specific information to the operator.
