The Great Eastern Japan Earthquake was the first disaster where many robotic systems were used for disaster response and recovery. It is expected that robotics becomes an essential solution in the near future. In this paper, the state of art of disaster robotics, gaps for actual use, and efforts for promoting social implementation are introduced.
In the phases of mitigation, response and recovery of disaster, robots are needed for remote/automatic reconnaissance and task execution in inaccessible/dangerous area as agents of human. This paper presents proposed priority issues of disaster robotics for reducing risks, which were discussed at committees of NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization) and COCN (Council on...
