Iranian Student Builds Rescue Robot to Find Wounded with Capability to Climb over Obstacles
“The simulated rescue robot moves along a complicated path and identifies the injured people,” Abtin Khordbin, a student of Tehran’s Danesh school, told ANA.
“We participated in the Iran Open RoboCup competition with a simulated rescue robot. This robot should move along a complicated path with obstacles like holes, sand hills, etc., which slows down its speed. These obstacles are actually simulations of the debris that exist at the time of incidents,” he added.
“The robot should move over or around all obstacles and correctly deliver the map by identifying the injured and provide a map of the entire field when returning to the origin,” Khordbin said.
“The robot receives points depending on the percentage that it has assessed and prepared the map correctly and identified the location of the injured,” he added.
The international Iran Open RoboCup Competition was held at Tehran Azad University, Science and Research Branch, with the participation of 12 teams from foreign universities and schools and hundreds of Iranian teams.
The 17th edition of Iran's Azad RoboCup international competition was held in cooperation among the Young and Elite Researchers Club, the Iran National RoboCup Committee and the Science and Research Branch of Islamic Azad University on April 26-28, 2023.
