2A2-N09 Development Challenges of Robot Systems for Mitigation of Tsunami Disaster(Search and Rescue Robot and Mechatronics (2))

摘要

The Great East Japan Earthquake occurred on March 11, 2011 has forced us to change our images of Tsunami disaster by its overwhelming destruction. For mitigation of Tsunami disaster, it is necessary to define the basic facts about Tsunami disasters based on the observations and then analyze the requirement in development of new robot systems. In this report five images of robot systems against Tsunami disaster are suggested as basic for further discussion. Additional remarks on InfoBalloon and GAREK.I engineering applications to Tsunami mitigation are given at last.
