Snake Robot Teams Up With Search-and-rescue Dog In US by ceejayluv(m): 7:39am On Apr 30, 2013 |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9OdUPY3OyE&feature=youtube_gdata_player US researchers working on a snake- like robot have tested pairing it with a search-and-rescue dog. The engineers sent two dogs fitted with harnesses containing the robot into a simulated collapsed building. The dogs then released the equipment, allowing the robot to wriggle free. The researchers hope the technology will one day be used to locate people trapped in places inaccessible to dogs. They are working to make the robot faster over rubble and other debris. A video of the experiment has been posted online by Carnegie Mellon University's biorobotics lab. www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22340218 |
