The device, called RoboDog, uses artificial intelligence to navigate autonomously and avoid obstacles.
Interestingly, the researchers do not aim to replace live guide dogs but to offer a more cost-effective option or additional assistance in rescue operations.
RoboDog is equipped with the latest sensors and computing units that allow it to effectively cope with the tasks of guiding and avoiding obstacles.
It is worth noting that the RoboDog project plans to participate in the international four-legged robot competition to be held in Japan in 2024. This can be a good test to demonstrate the capabilities and reliability of the system.
