The team under Professor Qing Shi from Peking University designed a rat-shaped all-terrain robot. They took this body structure of the rattus norvegicus (gray rat) as a basis, which allows animals to crawl into the narrowest cracks and climb through the rubble. The project was called “SQuRo”, an abbreviation for “Four-legged robot baby rat.”
SQuRo has step by step height, target height, and this is the connection point. This can twist the robot and squeeze through in a slit-dangerous form of development in all the 0.48 bodies found, which no other robot of similar size can boast of. SQuRo easily climbs on suspicion of inflammation at an angle of 15 degrees, climbs over doctors’ offices to a height of 30 mm, automatically tightens onto its paws after a fall.
With its own weight of 220 grams, the robot rat can carry 200 grams of payload in kodkiwim. The airborne is able to calculate the motion vector in any position, so SQuRo always knows how stable it is relative to the ground in reaching the moment. The robot automatically chooses between movement modes to achieve balance.
It is assumed that such a robot can penetrate through the cracks in the ruins and look for those who may be there. In addition, it can be sent to inspect hard-to-reach places. place.
