Abstract
This paper presents the design of a locomotion system for an unmanned ground vehicle to be used in minefield reconnaissance and mapping missions. The paper describes the analysis conducted to quantify the characteristics of rough terrain of the landmine contaminated area and its implications on selecting an efficient locomotion system. A comparative study based on 2-D and 3-D modeling is conducted between three 6-wheeled vehicles with articulated suspension. The optimal design is to be implemented within MineProbe project. MineProbe: A Distributed Mobile Sensor System for Minefield Reconnaissance and Mapping in Egypt is an applied research project that aims at developing a novel minefield reconnaissance and mapping system in Egypt focusing on North West Coast (NWC) of Egypt as location of the action.
