Abstract :
The remotely controlled robots are mounted on commercially available construction machines in order that they can be operated from a safe distance. There are remotely controlled robots for backhoe, crawler dump and bulldozer. We have used these remotely controlled robots in various disaster-relief works and confirmed their utility in disaster-relief works, where they can prevent further damage or secondary disasters.
