This paper describes the work performed by the UNAM.ORG team with the goal of creating a search and rescue robot, able to assist rescue brigades in tasks such as the exploration of semi-collapsed buildings and the search for survivors in disaster environments. Our team has been developing this project for two years now. During this time we have acquired valuable experience to approach the search and rescue tasks required at this competition. As part of the developing process, we crafted three different prototypes of our robot, each time having better locomotion or manipulation capabilities. In this paper we mainly focus on describing each of the systems of our most recent prototype, called FinDER v2. This last version was designed with the goal in mind of participating in the RoboCup 2014 in Brazil, and, by doing so, of having the opportunity of extensively testing the design in a challenging arena, as well as receiving critical feedback from the search and rescue robotics community. Introduction The UNAM.ORG team was formed in October of 2011 with the goal of researching within the field of search and rescue robotics by building a prototype that could help rescue brigades in search and rescue deployments. Mexico City is especially vulnerable to earthquakes strikes due to its geographical location near the North American, Cocos, and Pacific plates. Moreover, because it was built on a lake, land is soft and susceptible to displacements and building sinking. As a consequence there is an increasing interest in developing technology that may be of help to reduce human casualties in the aftermath of this kind of disasters.
