This category considers problem-solving in the areas of infrastructure,
disaster prevention and response, and aims to achieve particularly difficult tasks such as
plant disaster prevention and tunnel disaster response using robots.
Building robot-related consensus among people.
The world first competition to deal with tunnel disasters.
Plant Disaster Prevention Challenge
Outline
Inspecting or maintaining infrastructures based
on set standards (e.g. opening/closing valves).
Tunnel Disaster Response and Recovery Challenge
Outline
Collecting information and providing emergency response in case of a tunnel disaster (e.g. life-saving, removing obstacles from tunnels).
Standard Disaster Robotics Challenge
Outline
Assessing standard performance levels
(e.g. mobility, sensing, information collection,
wireless communication, remote control on-site
deployment, durability, etc.) required in disaster
prevention and responses.
