Abstract

In situations such as earthquakes and fires, rescue workers are called upon to do very dangerous and hazardous work. Consequently, there is a strong demand for rescue robots to do rescue operations instead of human rescue workers. This paper discusses our ongoing development of a rescue robot system that can provide direct help to disaster victims. To enable the system to perform rescue operations, the robot hands are equipped with multiple tactile sensors. A model of the rescue robot system and its multi-sensor control system was made, and it successfully performed fundamental experiments in rescue operations.
