Abstract

Since the ancient era, humans are using circular wheels for land locomotion. However, this mode of transportation seems inefficient on uneven surfaces and loose grounds like deserts. Though, advancements have helped to increase the feasibility but not up to a great extent. This paper depicts the designing of an innovative approach to vehicles that may easily maneuver on the abnormal terrains. For instance, we focused on 'Desert lands'. The core objective of the Desobot is to provide comfortable and cheap ferry for travelers. Aside of this basic function, it may also serve as a tourist attraction; an asset for tourist agencies. The Gradual design iterations are also contained in the paper. Advanced CAD tool like PTC Creo and linkage 2.0 are used to enhance the visual and dimensional aesthetics.
