Bomb Patrol in Afghanistan Uses a Robot to Blow Up an IED
You have probably seen or heard of bomb squad people before, but have you heard that they use robots to blow up the IED's. TALON is the name of the robot that the bomb squad in the video used. This robot is equipped with tank like treads, an arm with strong servos, and multiple cameras. The treads allow this bot to easily move over rough terrain. The arm sets off the bomb, and the cameras let the bomb squad men see the what kind of bomb they have found (of course, without going up close to it). TALON job to ensure that no bomb blows up and wounds or even kills a person. Thanks for reading and check out the video above to see TALON do his dangerous task!
