Piloted Autonomous Crisis Reconnaissance Robot 2.0 (PACRR 2.0)
No full textPACRR 2.0 (Piloted Autonomous Crisis Reconnaissance Robot, version 2) builds upon the original low-cost, autonomous-capable quadruped platform by enhancing both mobility and environmental perception for first-responder applications such as search and rescue, gas leak detection, and mapping of confined or hazardous areas. In PACRR 2.0, we integrate an RGB-D camera with analytic inverse kinematics and frame-based motion planning to achieve precise foot placement and stable quasi-static gaits even on sloped or uneven terrain. An NVIDIA Jetson processor runs high-level control and mapping alongside a Raspberry Pi 4 to manage motor control. Through simulation, we demonstrate robust 3D map generation and center-of-gravity stabilization under varying inclinations
