Paper analyses some most important characteristics that should be taken into consideration in building the robotic demining vehicle. Based on previous experiences from the development of demining technology the modular concept of the multipurpose vehicle and some its main functional parts are discussed. Such robotic vehicle can be used as general porter of various detection systems, tools for cleaning terrain as well as neutralization equipment. Further development towards partially autonomous system and some principal tasks of positioning in dangerous terrain are analyzed. The real construction of the vehicle equipped by the flailing mechanisms for mechanical activation of explosions is briefly presented.
