Abstract

This document has the aim to evaluate the sensor technologies used for landmine detection that can be on a robotic platform. In the first part, we present the global context around the mines. Then, we select the most relevant technologies and evaluate their quality in physics parameters related with robotic. Additionally, we present the external factors that affect the sensor measure, indicate their advantages and disadvantages for the demining task and mention some design elements for the robotic system relevant to demining task. Finally, we present new features require for the detection task of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and reduce the sensors set useful for their detection.
