On the design and development of a rough terrain robot for rescue missions

Rescue Robots play an important role during rescue missions in disasters such as 9/11, which caused more than 2,000 deaths and thousands of injuries. However, tele-operating rescue robots are unable to perform their tasks constantly due to the limitation of current wireless communication technology....
