Overview
THOR-RD (Tactical Hazardous Operations Robot – Rapid Deployment) is a disaster relief humanoid robot that is a modified version of THOR-OP2. It is fully actuated with 31 degrees of freedom controlled by modular position control actuators, and uses IMUs, F/T sensors, LIDARS, webcams, and other various sensors to conduct both locomotion and manipulation. At 150 cm and 54 kg, THOR-RD is about the same size as a person, and has the functionality to match. It participated in the DARPA Robotics Challenge Finals in 2015 in Pomona, California, USA, while it also became a world champion in robot soccer competition Robocup 2015 held at Hefei, China.
