The unmanned firefighting robot is a physical AI-based unmanned firefighting platform that is deployed in place of firefighters at fire scenes that are difficult for them to enter, where it detects the seat of the fire and performs initial response operations. Hyundai Motor Group developed it by integrating an AI infrared camera, a 6×6 in-wheel motor drivetrain, and an in-house spray cooling system, enabling continuous operation even in high-temperature, low-visibility environments.
Six Key Components of an Unmanned Firefighting Robot
- Vision-enhancing Camera : AI-based infrared camera system with visibility enhancement software for real-time fire scene monitoring
- 6X6 In-Wheel Motor System : Integrates drive, braking, steering functions within each wheel, Independent wheel control for enhanced stability and maneuverability
- Advanced Driving Assistance System : Radar · lidar · camera-based obstacle detection with remote driving capability
- Battery : Up to 15 hours continuous water cannon and self-spray system operation
- High-Pressure Self-illuminating Hose Reel : Illuminated water hose helps guide evacuation routes
- Self-Spraying System : Maintains body temperature of 50 ~ 60℃ in 500 ~ 800℃ environments
