Analog Sensing and Leap Motion Integrated Remote Controller for Search and Rescue Robot System

In the age of modern technological capabilities, robotic systems play a vital role in making our lives more comfortable. Robotic systems are becoming an essential part of human life due to their efficiency, multi-functionality, and high performance. In recent years, search and rescue robot systems are used tremendously for helping to rescuers in a natural disaster. Every year, millions of people are affected by disasters in different parts of the world. Disasters can be manmade or natural, such as building collapse, earthquakes, avalanches, volcanic activity, wildfires, and floods, etc. This witnesses the importance of sensor-based search and rescue robot systems in the emergency and also disaster management field. A variety of sensing and wireless technologies are used for remote and vision controlling in the emergency field. The use of these sensing and wireless technologies, the rescuers instead of going inside in the disaster area, can control the robot systems remotely when calamity occurs. A remote controller is used in the remote control of modern robotic systems. In this paper, we design an analog sensing and Leap Motion integrated remote controller for search and rescue robot system. The controller consists of an Arduino Mega Pro MINI, joystick module, Leap Motion controller, radio module, USB hub, potentiometer, power switch, button, USB type B female, Ii-on battery and Ii-on charger. The remote controller has the ability to help the rescuers to remote control in the disaster area from far away. The rescuers also could save their lives by using this remote controller. The main objective of this paper is to design a multi-functional and easy to control remote controller for search and rescue robot system.
