Abstract

In this paper, design and development strategies of camera arm systems for disaster response robots are fully discussed. Unlike the previously-provided system, which has been used repeatedly for information gathering purpose at the FUKUSHIMA nuclear disaster in 2011, a camera arm is mounted on a crawler-type remote operation robot. A wide variety of design aspects for practical uses of camera arm systems, including functional requirements, space-effective realizations and experimental evaluations, are discussed.
