Project Details
Goal of the project
In the event of an emergency due to a fire or other crisis it is time consuming to establish whether the ground can be entered safely by human beings. The VIEW-FINDER project seeks to develop and utilise robots and an advanced base station for inspection and in-situ data gathering.
Role of the organisation
RMA co-develops robots that will be equipped with onboard TV/IR cameras, LADAR and other sensors to enhance scene reconstruction, as well as a wide array of chemical sensors.
Funding acknowledgement
The View-Finder project was funded through the EU-FP6 project grant number 045541 in Advanced Robotics (IST-2005-2.6.1).
