The number of people who drown and die during the national flood prevention period every year is very large, which is even more helpless. To this end, Texas A&M University has developed a robot called. It comes with a rescue device with a jet glider, which has amazing buoyancy on water and can be helpful for rescuing drowning victims. It is understood that this robot is cylindrical in shape and has a relatively stylish appearance. However, its speed is not low, reaching 20 miles per hour, and it can be used for 20 minutes each time, enough to rescue people several times back and forth. Moreover, its buoyancy is good, enough to support 5 people.

When a person falls into the water or is trapped in a flood disaster, rescue personnel do not need to go into the water. They can quickly enter the water and rescue by remotely controlling the water rescue robot on the shore. The remote-controlled water rescue robot weighs 15 kilograms and can be easily thrown from ships, banks, or airplanes. After the device flips over, it can automatically flip to the front within 1.5 seconds, and can turn steadily in waves and travel against wind and waves. Its water speed can reach up to 38 kilometers per hour, which is more than 12 times that of a lifeguard. It can tow lifebuoys or rubber boats and floating ropes, and the two robots can be remotely controlled together online. The remote-controlled water rescue robot has a buoyancy of 160 kilograms and can rescue 4 drowning people at the same time. The drowning people can grab the ropes on both sides of it or lie on its top waiting for rescue. The robot has a battery life of 60 minutes, and the product design is portable, lightweight, easy to use, and highly safe.
In addition, it can also relieve a lot of work for lifeguards. Those who are conscious can be temporarily rescued with Emily, while lifeguards can go to rescue those who have lost consciousness, making full use of rescue time. However, it has not been officially put into use yet. Its functions are still relatively basic, and it is not yet able to handle unexpected situations during various rescue processes with ease. I believe that in the future, it will be equipped with more practical functions. If it can achieve self positioning, it can better assist in the rescue work.

It can be thrown from a ship, shore, or airplane, and automatically flips to the front after flipping. It is driven by a propeller similar to a water motorcycle, with a speed more than 12 times that of a lifeguard. It can make stable turns in waves and travel against wind and waves. It can tow lifebuoys or rubber boats and floating ropes, and two robots can be combined online and side by side to rescue together. The remote-controlled water rescue robot can rescue 4 drowning people at the same time. The drowning people can grab the ropes on both sides of it or lie on its top waiting for rescue.

1.1 Characteristics and uses: The average swimming speed of lifeguards is only 2 meters per second, and each task takes at least half an hour, leaving no time to rescue more drowning people. Factors such as huge waves and rapids are also major obstacles that prevent lifeguards from rescuing drowning people; The water rescue remote control robot can rescue up to 4 drowning people at the same time. The drowning people can grab the ropes on both sides of it or lie on its top and wait for rescue; Robots can make stable turns in waves, travel against wind and waves, and also tow rescue equipment such as lifebuoys, rubber boats, and floating ropes.
1.2. Launch method: The remote-controlled water rescue robot can be launched from a height of 20 meters, such as from a ship, shore, or airplane. After flipping, it can automatically flip to the front and continue driving. Provide a video of the product being thrown into the water from a high altitude as evidence. The video is stored on a CD or USB drive and is in a universal playback format. The video file and bid document should be submitted together in sealed form.
1.3 Product Structure: The structure of the water rescue remote control robot is an upper and lower structure, with the upper part made of anti-collision soft buoyancy material and the lower hull made of fiberglass material, which is wear-resistant and impact resistant. It is a non inflatable structure and does not pose a risk of air leakage.
1.4. Start up time: One power switch and one remote control switch can be quickly put into use within 5 seconds.

1.7. Remote control distance (meters) ≥ 855 meters
1.8. Passenger buoyancy (kg) ≥ 160 kg
1.9. Water load capacity (kg) ≥ 160 kg
2.0. Forward thrust on water (kg) ≥ 7 kg
2.1. Automatic straightening function: After flipping in water, manual straightening is not required, and the automatic straightening time is ≤ 2 seconds
2.2. Drive power structure: 1 lithium polymer rechargeable battery, with a plug-in design that allows for quick battery replacement, extending the continuous working time of the device.
2.3. Each rechargeable battery has a continuous working time (in minutes) of ≥ 30 minutes
2.4. Fast battery charging time (minutes)<45 minutes
2.5. Drive device: jet safety drive, non propeller rotation mode.
2.6. Wind and wave resistance level (meters) ≥ 2 meters

2.8. Robot size ＜ 136 × 42 × 34 centimeters
2.9. Number of handles for pulling people: There are 4 handles on the upper part of the body, and 6 sections of ropes around the lower part of the body for multiple people to use when drowning.
3.0. Supporting safety equipment: 1 semi-automatic retractable rope reel with a 600 meter floating rope.
3.1. One remote control can simultaneously operate 25 rescue robots for use together.
3.2. Online practical use function: During rescue, two robots can be remotely controlled and used side by side, which can quickly travel and turn, enhancing the buoyancy and pulling force of water rescue. Provide a video of two robots being remotely controlled together online as evidence. The video is stored on a CD or USB drive and is in a universal playback format. The video file and bid document should be submitted together in sealed form.
3.3. The water rescue robot is equipped with two triangular flagpoles for remote observation. The robot has a triangular flagpole installation socket on the top, which is safe, stable, and well-designed.
3.4. The robot is compact in size and can be transported in daily cars
3.5. Remote control operation back and forth from shore, without the need for rescue personnel to enter the water for rescue.
3.6. The remote control receiver adopts a built-in antenna, so there is no possibility of external antenna breakage or injury to drowning personnel.
