戦場のお姫様だっこロボBEAR


米VECNA Technologiesが開発するレスキューロボBEAR (Battlefield Extraction and Retrieval Robot)。人間を抱え上げたまま移動できる強力な上腕と二足 / キャタピラのハイブリッド脚、不安定な地形でも転ばない動的バランシング機構が特徴。

名前に「バトルフィールド」とあるように、建前としては戦場で傷ついた兵士をだっこして連れ帰るもの。そのほか介護や家庭用お手伝いロボへの応用があげられています。プロトタイプはすでに人間を運んで「50分」倒れずに移動できているとのこと。




直立するとかなり不気味。


写真を見て「手がドリルになっているロボ」かと思い期待した者は後で生徒指導室に来るように。
