Abstract
This paper describes the development of a sensor system for the localization and navigation of climbing robots. Based on 3 angular velocity sensors, 3 accelerometers and a dead reckoning wheel, the position and the orientation of a climbing machine are determined. Also the electronic concept is introduced, which allows the calculation of position and orientation in real-time.
