Abstract

Helix is a rover based on the principle of a suspension system. The rover is developed with a highly stable suspension system capable of operating in multi-terrain surfaces. The rover can sustain a tilt of over 50 degrees without flipping over the sideways. The rover can be also rotated in left or right direction for better controllability. A six-wheeled rover capable of traversing rough terrain using an efficient high degree of mobility suspension system has been chosen for the purpose. Six motors are located inside the body where thermal variation is kept to a minimum, increasing reliability and efficiency. Six wheels are used because there are few obstacles on natural terrain that require both front wheels of the rover to climb simultaneously. A camera and appropriate sensors are also mounted in the rover. In case of any variation in surrounding of the working area, the rover can alert the authority for the safety of the workers. With the implementation of rover in mining industries, we can surely say that many lives can be saved.
