Sept. 11, 2001, was the first reported use of a robot for any kind of disaster. Since then, Dr. Robin Murphy and her team have deployed robots to nearly 30 disasters in five countries, including Hurricanes Katrina and Harvey. Rescue roboticists have to constantly ask themselves how to efficiently get the right information to different groups of decision-makers. Artificial Intelligence plays an important role. Texas A&M students developed algorithms to sort and prioritize images so a person can quickly identify the ones with critical information - using A.I. to help human and canine responders do their jobs better.
"The next time you hear about a disaster, look for the robots. Robots are coming to the rescue." -- Dr. Robin Murphy
