welcome to watchmojo.com I’m Dave
MacPhail today I’m going to be
presenting to you the international
Eureka technology and science festival
we’re gonna take a look at some of the
latest tech toys some of the technology
we use in our everyday lives as well
some technology you didn’t even know
existed I’m here at the bomb squad we
are looking at a couple of robots that
are used to disarm a bomb either inside
buildings outside buildings in different
scenarios this one is the newer of the
tube that we’re gonna look at made by a
company named Vanguard it’s called the
mk2 this one works off 2.4 gigahertz
signal the same signal you use on your
wireless telephone this can be used
inside of a building and the signal will
not be cut so they can command this
robot to do whatever they like for them
outside the building which is very
advantageous for them obviously
basically this robot has two functions
first of all it’s put with three cameras
one in the front one on the arm and one
up here not only is this robot used to
take the arm and disassemble the bomb
it’s also used to take pictures so if
ever there is a hostage situation and
they want to enter the building without
harming any of their policemen they’ll
send this in take appropriate pictures
to find out the location of the
criminals it’s the older of the two
robots used for dismantling bombs this
is called the r2 this one’s about 15
years old where the other one was only
about two years old this one also has
cameras on it as you can see in the
front there although this one cannot go
upstairs very well because it’s track
system is simply parallel the other one
with this triangular track system can go
upstairs this one’s a little bit bigger
this one’s used in situations where they
need something with a little bit more
force so if it has to open the door
knock something down this one is a
little more useful because it has more
torque more power i’m here with a med
end bomb suits obviously used for the
dismantling of a bomb when it’s too
difficult to do it with a robot
basically this has special kevlar
coating it also has a metal plate in the
front and it’s also heat resistant
unfortunately this suit weighs over a
hundred pounds it’s used to go into the
building dismantle the bomb and get the
hell out
