DARPA: Pentagon Wants Rescue Robots

03-11-2012 12:20pm#1I remember discussing DARPA robots here before and some idiot said they are explicitly for testing clothing, I laughed and said, "dont be so ****ing stupid".
Pentagon Wants Rescue Robots Built In Time For the Next “Natural Disaster”
In the wake of Tropical Storm Sandy, the Pentagon has requested that a team of “rescue robots” be engineered in time for the next “natural disaster”. The DARPA Robotics Challenge is putting out the call for a synthetic force that can be designed for autonomous thought; yet mitigate the risk to human life when preforming a rescue mission.
According to Defense Advance Research Projects Agency (DARPA): “Our best robotic tools are helping, but they are not yet robust enough to function in all environments and perform the basic tasks needed to mitigate a crisis situation. Even in degraded post-disaster situations, the environment is scaled to the human world, requiring navigation of human obstacles such as doors and stairs, manipulation of human objects such as vehicles and power tools, and recognition of common human objects such as levers and valves.”
