Robotics Role in Public Safety a new Robot dog called spot a four-legged friend. This dog can climb, and remove packages involving chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosives materials. Thermal camera can detect hot spots in buildings and provides a 360-degree view. If the robot falls, it can easily get back up by pressing a button without any other assistance to self-right itself. Operator range is 1Km extended operation can be done using repeaters. Can carry in various detectors to detect chemical and radiological hazards at a safe distance.

History On 4 August 1945, the Vladimir Lenin All-Union Pioneer organization presented a hand-carved replica of the Great Seal of the United States to US Ambassador Averell Harriman, as a gesture of friendship to their World War II ally. The seal contained a radio which contained no power source or wires of its own. Instead, to function the device would be “illuminated” by a strong microwave carrier from outside the building, this would power it on and transmit modulated audio from inside the building to a receiver located outside the building.
