The leading European robotics and autonomous systems developer and system integrator Milrem Robotics and InnoVfoam, the specialist in foam extinguishing technology, present the Multiscope Rescue Hydra unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) at the Sofins exhibition held in France from June 29 until July 1. The jointly developed firefighting solution combines Milrem Robotics’ unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) Multiscope Rescue and InnoVfoam’s Hydra fire monitor and foam proportioning system.

The firefighting robot can be remotely operated by firefighters who remain at a safe distance while receiving a complete overview of the operation area via various thermal and infrared cameras and sensors onboard the robot that can additionally detect gas or chemical leaks. The fire monitors can be operated independently from the UGV thanks to separate cameras on the UGV and the monitors allowing the vehicle to change position while maintaining a perfect overview of the fire. The system can also be complemented with additional preventive and repressive systems and autonomous functions.
