Demining robot explained
Demining robot is a robotic land vehicle that is designed for detecting and clearing land mines. Demining robots are designed for spotting the exact location of land mines. Practicing demining without demining robot can be costly and dangerous for people,[1] especially if the environment is dull or dirty, or otherwise dangerous to humans, it is then very well-suited for demining robots.[2] Some manufacturers test and inspect rigorously before releasing demining robots for service.[3]
Models
Uran-6
Uran-6 is a demining robot model used by Russian Federation[4] in Syria and Ukraine.[5] The Uran-6 is a short-range and remotely piloted robot. Limitations of this robot include the need for human operators to be within a few hundred feet.
MV-4 Dok-Ing
MV-4 Dok-Ing is a demining robot model used by Republic of Croatia.[6] [7]
