A robotic system that can have a body and four flippers is described. Any or all of the flippers can be rotated. The flippers can have self-cleaning tracks. The tracks can be driven or passive. The robotic system can be controlled by, and send audio and/or video to and/or from, a remote operator control module. The methods of using and making the robotic system are also described.

Robotic system and methods of use

A robotic system that can have a body and four flippers is described. Any or all of the flippers can be rotated. The flippers can have self-cleaning tracks. The tracks can be driven or passive. The robotic system can be controlled by and send audio and/or video to and/or from, a remote operator control module. The methods of using and making the robotic system are also described.

A robotic system that can have a chassis and a track drive system is described. The track drive system can be configured to move the chassis. The track drive system can have a pulley, a pulley cap having a larger diameter than the pulley, and a track. The pulley cap can be rotationally fixed to the pulley. The track can be engagable and disengagable with the pulley cap. The methods of using and making the robotic system are also described.

A robotic vehicle system is disclosed. The system can have a body and a track drive system configured to move the body. The track drive system can have a pulley and a track. The pulley can have an outer pulley surface. The track can have an inner track surface. The pulley can be configured to form at least one pocket between the inner track surface and the outer pulley surface when a foreign object is introduced between the pulley and the track. The foreign object can have a long axis (e. g. maximum width) greater than about 0.2 cm.
