Robots to the rescue

Hi-Tech Robotics Private Ltd has developed Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear (CBRN) Unmanned Ground Vehicle in collaboration with DRDO, saying robotics is the future of surveillance and rescue operations.

 The vehicle is on display at the defence pavilion. This robot can be used for saving lives of defence personnel in Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear warfare and variants of this robot can be used for video surveillance, UXO handling & combat / anti-terrorist operations. 

At high altitudes with harsh environments, the robot can do surveillance and can aid in rescue operations where landing is not possible. “In a situation like Siachen, it could have been used for search and rescue operations,” said Rohit Aggarwal, Executive-Marketing, the Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz Ltd.
