I experienced two scary earthquakes in the last days in Tokyo, so hearing that the local fire department isn't sleeping on the rescue robot front was a relief. The newest model can be used for those cases in which the rescuers can't reach people in an emergency, i.e. if the area is too dangerous for the rescuers themselves.The so-called Robocue can be remote-controlled and is able to pull victims inside its body via a conveyor belt. After that, the person in question can be driven to a safe area.
