Abstract : Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics also known as Search and Rescue (SAR) robotics is the emerging field in robotics. There are many challenges and research domains in this field. This paper aims in the design and implementation of the robust flipper based Search and Rescue robot for high mobility and modularity challenges. Robots are not as agile as humans while moving on uneven terrains after the disaster has occurred. The designed rescue robot has the capability to move on any rough uneven terrain with ease. Modularity, mobility, and robustness are the key factors that are taken into consideration for designing this rescue robot with the flipper mechanism to move effectively and efficiently in all the harsh environments. The robot is totally designed in Solidworks CAD tool. The robot was tested in an artificially created disaster scenario considering all the parameters like step fields, sand, gravel, and rough terrains.
