The stair-climbing prototype is a prototype constructed to contribute to the always advancing development on robot designs. Our purpose on this prototype is to make one which is focused on a simple concept but clearly done in a technical fashion. We would like to introduce a design that is graceful and efficient. Our goal was achieved by using a simple machine simple machine, a pulley system for the legs. Forward and backward movement is done with the use of two motors on the front and middle legs. We also placed sensors to all of the legs to sense the incoming step. The interfacing for the prototype is done with the use of a computer via parallel port. The construction and functionality of each part would be discussed thoroughly in this paper.
