FirstLook: The Throwable, Rugged Robot
FirstLook is a throwable, rugged and expandable robot that provides
immediate situational awareness, performs persistent observation
and investigates dangerous and hazardous material while maintaining
a safer stand-off distance for operators. Quick to power-up, FirstLook
can be deployed in a moment’s notice.
FirstLook allows operations where other robots can’t fit or maneuver.
This rugged, lightweight robot can be inserted into structures and
provides operators with visual, audio, and sensor feedback before
entry. Maneuverable in a variety of environments, FirstLook climbs
small obstacles, overcomes curbs, turns in place and self-rights when
flipped over.
FirstLook is controllable from the uPoint® Multi-Robot Control
system, featuring a touchscreen-based tablet controller that allows
an operator to select from across the family of connected robots.
FirstLook uses the MPU5 radio operating on the Wave Relay
MANET, to form a robust network in which robots, operators, and
observers seamlessly operate together.
THROWABLE, RUGGED, AND MANEUVERABLE
Weighing 6.6 lb (3 kg), FirstLook survives 16 ft (5 m) drops onto
concrete.
HIGHLY MANEUVERABLE
FirstLook climbs obstacles up to 7” (17.8 cm) high, overcomes curbs,
turns in place and self-rights when flipped over.
POWERFUL MULTI-SENSOR CAPABILITY
Four color cameras with zoom and illumination, plus audio
capability are integrated into FirstLook. Optional CBRN/ HazMat
sensors available.
CONTROLLABLE FROM THE UPOINT MULTI-ROBOT CONTROL SYSTEM
Using the touchscreen-based ruggedized tablet controller, an operator can select from across the family of connected robots.
SUPERIOR COMMUNICATIONS
The MPU5 radio operating on the Wave Relay MANET, allows
the robot to penetrate deeper into complex structures and further
downrange than ever before.
