Mechanical Design of a Mobile Robot with Elliptic Legs for Environmental Monitoring

摘要：

　　In response to increasing public concern about the environment,we developed an autonomous environmental monitoring robot named Waseda Animal Monitoring robOT (WAMOT).The challenge in the development of the robot was in the design of hardware suitable for outdoor operation.Elliptic legs were used to enhance the outdoor locomotion and reduce power consumption.In this paper,we present the details of the hardware and prototype of the robot,and the results of its experiment.
