China unveils world's first emergency rescue robot capable of operating in 'extreme' temperatures

The world's first emergency rescue robot and emergency transportation robot, independently developed by China's CSSC Haishen and Hangzhou-based DEEP Robotics, officially debuted in Beijing on Wednesday, the Global Times reported.

The publication notes that robots can be widely used to rescue people during natural disasters, as they can function stably at temperatures from -20 °C to +55 °C. However, it is difficult to call a temperature of -20 °C truly extreme.

The new "rescuers" can move in three variants: on four legs, on wheels and on tracks. The robots can also be used on the battlefield, for example, to provide first aid, as well as to transport the wounded. For this purpose, they are equipped with a portable emergency medical device with key functions: monitoring, infusion, ultrasound, defibrillation, artificial respiration and oxygen supply.

The launch of these robots fills a global gap in the intelligence capabilities of emergency medical equipment.

- writes the official newspaper of the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China, Science and Technology Daily.

According to experts, such innovations eliminate many limitations of traditional manual emergency rescue methods and effectively meet the demand for intelligent emergency rescue equipment that is efficient, lightweight and capable of providing rapid medical assistance.

operating at "extreme" temperatures

The guy himself fantasized and made fun of himself. An extreme situation is not a SYNONYM for extreme temperature.

A unique robot designed to provide emergency medical care and transport victims, developed by China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation Poseidon in collaboration with Cloud Deep Tech, premiered in Beijing. This robot is the first of its kind and has a wide range of capabilities for use in various extreme and emergency situations.

The robot is equipped with three types of walking: on four legs, on wheels or on tracks, which allows it to move in difficult conditions. It is also capable of providing emergency medical care, including resuscitation, defibrillation, ultrasound, drug administration, oxygen supply and monitoring of the patient's vital signs. The new product is capable of operating in conditions from -20 to 55 degrees Celsius, providing first aid even on the move.

This breakthrough in medical robotics is designed for use in a wide range of environments, from natural disasters to combat and industrial accidents, by providing fast and effective medical care on the scene.

Interesting concept. Only, when I look at these dogs, it seems to me that the wheel is more functional. Legs are not supposed to run on steps or on big stones. No?
It is not for nothing that the wheel became a kind of breakthrough in the development of mankind. Horses have always had legs.

A robot horse would have a greater load-bearing capacity than a robot dog, and a centaur would also be able to work with his hands.
The spider robot is well suited for off-road travel without shaking.

All robot experiments are yet to come...
