In the midst of a nuclear crisis that occurred in Japan, demonstrating a powerful robots are ready to fight tooth and radiation. Some robots specially imported from Australia, the United States, and France in order to overcome problems related to the reactor in Fukushima. Want to know what it's robots? Here goes the list:
1. Monirobo (Monitoring Robot)
Monirobo designed to work in an environment with radiation levels are too high for humans. 1.5-meter-tall robot has a manipulator arm to remove the obstacles and take samples. In addition, the robot is also diolengkapi with radiation detectors, cameras and 3-dimensional temperature and humidity sensors.
Robots weighing 600 kg was developed by the Center for Japanese nuclear technology Safety and the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan after Tokaimura nuclear accident in 1999. Able to move with speed 2.4 km / h, this robot has a protective anti-radiation necessary to protect the sensors and electronic equipment he had.
2. Rainbow 5
This robot is the first robot production Tokyo Fire Department. Introduced in 1986, this robot is actually a robot and used water hoses during fire situations too dangerous for humans. This robot help with hoses to spray water along 800 feet directly into the spent fuel pools at reactor number 3 for 13 hours.
3. Packbots and 710 Warriors 510
Both robots were developed by the iRobot Corporation of Bedford in Massachusetts.This robot can move more swiftly than Monirobo. Both were able to climb stairs and even the Warriors be able to pull the hose. The weakness of the two robots are not having a protective layer of radiation.
4. Erase, EROS and ERELT
Erase, EROS and ERELT are robots developed by INTRA (Groupe d'Intervention sur Robotique Accidents). The three robots are specifically designed to cope with a nuclear accident. Erase weighs 6 tons and has a powerful hydraulic manipulator, EROS is devoted to operations in the room while ERELT a radio relay robot that can be controlled from a distance of several kilometers. Shipping robot was canceled because of Japan said it is not needed it
