TOMSK, Jul 12 – RIA Tomsk. Scientists of the Tomsk Cardiology Research Institute and Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) plan to develop the mobile robot with distance
steering which will provide first aid to the victims, injured in places of
emergency and of military operations, the innovative portal of the Tomsk region
reports on Wednesday.
"We wrote the specification...
It will be a car with arms and eyes-cameras. Its "brain" will remain
a person who will give commands to the robot remotely", – the portal
quotes the deputy director of the Cardiology Research Institute Shamil
Akhmedov.
It is specified that the robot
will be guided on the place by means of the operator who will assess the
situation, using cameras-"eyes". The robot will provide first aid:
will stop bleeding, anesthetize, make immobilization (splint a fracture) and
transports a person to a safe place.

It is marked that the
scientists expect "to fill" the machine with the modern medical tools
and medicines. The nonresident partner – NPO "Android Technics" (Magnitogorsk),
will develop «Hands» of the robot then it will be "taught" to work
with a scalpel and other tools in the Tomsk Cardiology Research Institute, TPU
is responsible for software development. The first stage of the work is to last
for three years.
It is specified that
scientists plan to begin to test the robot on animals in three years, and the
project is to last seven years. The developers submitted the project on
creation of mobile robotic installation for primary medical aid on competitions
of the RRussian Foundation for Basic Research and Russian Scientific Fund.
Earlier it was reported that
scientists of the International laboratory "Vision systems" of Tomsk State University developed the robot capable to survey territories regarding chemical
and radiation contamination, and also create the autonomous robotic platform
for evacuation of people and collecting dangerous objects at rescue operations
in places of technogenic catastrophes.
