Hybrid power supply of rescue robot based on supercapacitors

摘要

This paper designs a hybrid power supply composed of supercapacitors and a power battery in consideration of their characters for the reason that the power battery cannot provide sufficient current for the rescue robot to climb over large obstacles. The advantages of the hybrid power supply were illustrated by contrast experiments of the robot's slope climbing performance. The results show that hybrid power supply improves the rescue robot's ability of over-obstacle.
