Abstracts: This report includes the technical details of the robotic platform. Bomb disposal robot which is an acronym for Bomb Locating and Removal Robot, is an autonomous mobile robot capable of detecting and removing objects that are life endangering. When powered on, robot will proceed to randomly search for objects it perceives as bombs while avoiding obstacles. When an object is found, it will slowly approach it and apprehend it using its mechanical arm. After the bomb is procured, it will then search for the bomb tube and place the bomb into it thereby neutralizing the threat. The robot that we have designed is guided by controls that take input from a human and perform certain actions based on these inputs. Our project is a Robotics project. Robotics is not a pure Mechanical Engineering subject it is a combination of different engineering fields namely • Mechanical Engineering • Electrical Engineering • Electronics Engineering • Computer Engineering The robot that we have made is a command and control robot. This robot takes commands from the user in the form of control signals and performs the required action. The central idea behind this robot is to provide a line of defense to a bomb disposal squad against the life threatening risk, faced by them in the event of an explosion. It provides the squad a safe distance to dispose off a bomb, which he normally has to do with his bear hands.
