Abstract
This paper reflects the vision of designing a rover that can help people out in life threatening situations. The rover has both the mobility and ability to move on different terrain. The aim was to create a rover that would have 90-degree freedom on its front wheels having its own multi suspension it can move on to any sort of terrain like rough surfaces, broken roads, muddy terrain but most importantly can climb stairs. The rover is implemented with 6 wheels for its movement. The front 4 wheels acts as climbers while the other 2 rear wheels acts as support and holds the weight of the rover. The rover is programmed in such a way that allows the rover to turn and also letting the rover have superior maneuverability by allowing it to rotate 360° at one spot instantly. The rover being able to move on such harsh terrain will give the user an advantage to help out people in need from a distance without risking his/her own life. Practical usage of this rover could be by the fire fighters, military, bomb squad and many more. Due to making the rover light weight and cost effective PVC pipes has been used for constructing the base frame and structure.
