Task T2
Vehicle Inspection
Task T3
Vehicle Inspection using Tools and Rescue
Task T4
Secure the Route
Task T5
Fire Extinguish
Task T6
Shoring and Breaching
Task T1
Traversing Obstacles
Traverse uneven terrain and narrow space.
Challenges
Mobility of the heavy work robot in the condition with the obstacles
Scoring
Practical level speed and accuracy.
Task T2
Vehicle Inspection
Inspect inside and outside of vehicle and surroundings (tunnel)
Challenges
Visual inspection of the "targets" in complicated narrow dark space.
Scoring
Practical level speed and accuracy.
Task T3
Vehicle Inspection using Tools and Rescue
Inspect inside the vehicle by using tools and rescue the victim.
Challenges
Use tools for human with large reaction force. Manipulation of human body.
Scoring
Practical level speed and accuracy.
Task T4
Secure the Route
Remove the obstacles on the specified route by pushing/pulling/carrying them.
Challenges
Manipulation of L-shape obstacles of which center of gravity is unknown.
Scoring
Practical level speed and accuracy.
Task T5
Fire Extinguish
Extinguishing fire by using the extinguisher installed in the tunnel.
Challenges
