Inspecting confined spaces.

About

Provide First-Aid

We are developing a robot capable of inspecting the depths of debris in catastrophy situations, such as earthquakes. Additionally we could provide water and drugs to potentially locked up persons.

Complex Terrains

Our robot is aiming to perform inspection tasks in hardly reachable and confined spaces. Not only in search and rescue but also for example by entering tight and long pipelines on industrial sites for inspection routines.

Technology

Dimensions

Our robot has a diameter of 10 cm and can expand up to 17 m in length.

Motion

Move forward and sideward using a pressure-based steering technique for vine robots.

Liquid Delivery

Through a separate tube we can transport water or medics directly to the head of the robot.

Reconnaissance

Equipped with visual-inertial sensors for inspection and mapping.
