UNDERWATER ROBOT, OBSTACLE DETECTOR OF AN UNDERWATER ROBOT FOR SENSING AND AVOIDING OBSTACLES AND METHOD OF SENSING AND AVOIDING AN OBSTACLE USING AN UNDERWATER ROBOT, CAPABLE OF ACCURATELY SENSING AN OBSTACLE BASED ON THE CONTACT OF THE ATTACHMENT OF AN UNDERWATER ROBOT WITH THE OBSTACLE
UNDERWATER ROBOT, OBSTACLE DETECTOR OF AN UNDERWATER ROBOT FOR SENSING AND AVOIDING OBSTACLES AND METHOD OF SENSING AND AVOIDING AN OBSTACLE USING AN UNDERWATER ROBOT, CAPABLE OF ACCURATELY SENSING AN OBSTACLE BASED ON THE CONTACT OF THE ATTACHMENT OF AN UNDERWATER ROBOT WITH THE OBSTACLE
PURPOSE: An underwater robot, obstacle detector of an underwater robot for sensing and avoiding obstacles and method of sensing and avoiding an obstacle using an underwater robot are provided to detect an obstacle by sensing pressure applied to a spring, not using magnetism. ;CONSTITUTION: An obstacle detector of an underwater robot(100) comprises at least one proximity sensor(132), a spring(134) and attachments(136). The proximity sensor is installed on the outer end of the body of the underwater robot. One side of the spring is connected to the proximity sensor. The spring supplies pressure applied from its other side, to the proximity sensor. The attachments are attached to the other side of the spring. When the attachments make contact with an obstacle, which is laid ahead, the attachments transfer pressure to the spring. While the underwater robot moves, the obstacle make contact with the attachments and the proximity sensor senses the collision of the underwater robot with the obstacle using pressure transferred to the spring.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2011
