  • Abstract
    A walking robot capable of moving with continuous motion on horizontal, vertical and over-hung curved surfaces has been developed. The robot is capable of moving a tool at a specified speed to follow complex paths on steel surfaces. The design, operation and control of the robot is discussed and some test results are presented
