The paper submitted presents a new-generation mobile platform specially designed for the service robot destined for motion on vertical oriented walls, e.g. on glass façade systems of tower buildings. The platform has been developed goal-directly as a motive system allowing special technological extensions to be installed with a view to inspecting, assembling or washing. It uses a stepping principle alternating step by step the motion of legs and body. A holding system was created based on the vacuum principle with greater number of parallel suction cups associated with the smart vacuum technique. Component rotational motive units are fitted with servo-actuators with electro motors being controlled on the level of modular systems based on an embedded PC.
