As robots save people Bashny.Net

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Blockquote> The first law of robotics by Isaac Asimov i>

Robots that were once science fiction (at least to Shakey in 1960-1970-xx ), part of our lives as Assistants - builders, surgeons and rescue workers. Under the cut - a few examples of how robotic technology helps save the lives of people most difficult conditions.

On the Sea h4> In 2013, the Iranian company RTS Ideas rescue drone tested to run on water. Unfortunately, he is not able to pick up the drowning man (even a child) and take it to the bank, but it can throw you a lifeline. With a robot carries three lifebuoys. Developers are also offering to recharge the robot with the help of solar panels on special parking.

Remotely controlled robot, so that the operator can not do without. The series has not yet emerged.



Among other possible applications called monitoring the coast, as well as pre-video and photography of places before the rescue operations. A prototype has been tested in the Caspian Sea. It can fly at a speed of 16 miles per hour and 10 minutes with three wheels on board.

The danger of explosions h4> It would be interesting to know the statistics, how many potentially save lives worldwide robots to help defuse the bomb. And thanks to them as combat engineers reduced the risk of not surviving to age next birthday. In the photo - Andros EOD from the company Remotec, version specifically for use with explosive devices.

Zavala h4> There are many ideas, but not all reach the final stage - to commercialization and mass use. This year was presented quadrocopter HERALD , which also still exists only as a prototype, brings also two snake-like robots that can penetrate in the gap to search for people under the rubble.

Fire h4> Robotic fire truck Pelican can extinguish fires from a distance of up to 60 meters. Controlling the robot by using Wi-Fi to 600 meters. In addition to direct fire fighting robot can lift people out of the danger zone - the operator will explain what to do and where to go. The machine is compact enough to work in tunnels and parking lots.

Battlefield h4> Nurse Galina Petrova, Hero of the Soviet Union for the first night alone on the Crimean coast made the battlefield more than twenty soldiers. How many more girls in the few years carried the wounded, and how many of those wounded - count is probably impossible. And in fact they did it under fire, and often killed.

Now people are trying to sacrifice less. For example, the wounded may make such a robot Bear. Very much he looks like a Japanese robot RIBA, designed to work with the elderly and patients clinics .

Ambulance h4> In the last five years in the European Union, the 800 000 people per year heart stopped, and survived only 8% of them. Developer дрона with defibrillator promises to increase the survival rate to 80%, that is to help save 640,000 lives a year. Geksakopter can get to the patient in the service area of ​​12 square kilometers in just a minute instead of the average of ten minutes, which is required for the arrival of an ambulance. Drone speed - about 100 km / h, the weight load of 4 kg and 4 kg.

Time plays a crucial role: as a rule, brain death occurs in 4-6 minutes after cardiac arrest. Defibrillation in the first minutes can save lives.





A similar project was in Germany in 2013, it was called Defikopter. Then the proposed dump defibrillator drone on a parachute, also recognizes the location using GPS. Speed ​​of the aircraft - about 70 km / h, it could cover the territory within a radius of 10 kilometers.
