A CLIMBING RESCUE ROBOT

Advances in Mobile Robotics, 2008
Rescue robotics for disaster response is of relevant practical importance to support rescuers. Main tasks are inspection of collapsed areas and localization of victims. Rescue robots need to be agile in order to penetrate even the smallest openings in the rubble.

Situation aware rescue robots

IEEE International Safety, Security and Rescue Rototics, Workshop, 2005., 2005
We present a model-based approach to the execution and control of an autonomous system, based on flexible behaviours, and supporting a novel view of human-robot interaction. The well-known RoboCup rescue competition is also discussed and presented as a special case for testing human-robot interaction architectures.

ET rescue robot

RO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2009
The ET (embedded technology) rescue robot is developed by following an OOADM (object-oriented analysis and design methodology) and using a UML (Unified modeling language) as a tool in the process. The idea is to improve the application development in robotic arena to be efficient, rapid, and conformable with the standard.

Rescue robotics challenge

2010 IEEE Workshop on Advanced Robotics and its Social Impacts, 2010
This paper discusses challenges of rescue robotics for the future research and development on the basis of the state of art of robotics to respond earthquakes and CBRNE (chemical/ biological/radiological/nuclear/explosives) disasters. The result of analysis showed that intelligence of mobility and execution performance, support for teleoperation ...

Human–Robot Interaction in Rescue Robotics

IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part C (Applications and Reviews), 2004
Rescue robotics has been suggested by a recent DARPA/NSF study as an application domain for the research in human-robot integration (HRI). This paper provides a short tutorial on how robots are currently used in urban search and rescue (USAR) and discusses the HRI issues encountered over the past eight years.

Faulty robot rescue by multi-robot cooperation

Robotica, 2013
SUMMARYThis paper presents a multi-agent behavior to cooperatively rescue a faulty robot using a sound signal. In a robot team, the faulty robot should be immediately recalled since it may seriously obstruct other robots, or collected matters in the faulty robot may be lost.

Rescue-robot show-down

IEEE Spectrum, 2014
The paper presents the most ambitious DARPA (U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) robot R&D program yet. Called the DARPA Robotics Challenge, or DRC, it aims to accelerate the development of robots that can help humans, not only with nuclear emergencies but also with fires, floods, earthquakes, chemical spills, and other kinds of natural and

Robots to the rescue?

Engineering & Technology, 2011
The use of robots in disaster zones was developed in response to the Hanshin-Awajii Earthquake in Kobe, Japan and the attacks on the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City in the United States. These events of the mid-1990s encouraged a number of researchers to think about the applications of robots for critical emergency crises.

RoboCup Rescue Robot League

2015
The RoboCup Rescue Robot League (RRL) aims to foster the development of rescue robots that can be used after disasters such as earthquakes. These robots help to discover victims in the collapsed structure without endanger the rescue personnel. The RRL has been held since 2000.
