The Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), having received designation from the MEXT (the Ministry of Education Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) has been funding research and development a new teleoperated robotic system that can be effectively and reliably used to carry sensors/equipments to the mine-field to detect and if required also to remove/neutralize the landmines at a safe distance away from the mine field. In this pater a new concept of access-and-control vehicle to assist humanitarian deming tasks is presented. The vehicle is based on a 4-wheel ATV with some minor modifications to make possible its remote-control. Moreover, it equips a weight-compensated robotic manipulator arm that minimizes energy consumption, and also can work on rough terrain providing good X,Y,Z and also orientation control for the sensor head. Automatic scanning of the terrain using stereo vision camera has been tested in prepared test lanes in Japan (2005), Croatia (2006), Cambodia (2006,2007) and the overall system proved to perform well, showing that GRYPHON concept is very promising. As for the mine sensor integration, already in early stage of development it has been verified that commercial metal detectors can be effectively integrated to Gryphon, and preliminary experiments indicate that the Probability of Detection of such vehicle-mounted detector can be 'AS GOOD AS HUMAN or EVEN BETTER'. Gryphon can also be equipped with new sensor technology such as Dual-Sensor (MD+GPR), NQR (Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance) sensor.
