A caterpillar robotic platform and a walking robot dog were tested at the mine of EuroChem's Usolsky Potash Combine as new potential employees.
EuroChem became the first company to test a robot dog in Russia underground. According to the company, this development on a walking platform, which engineers dubbed "Dobrynya", coped with the conditions in the mine better than a competitor on a caterpillar platform.
Dobrynya, also known as Deep Robotics X20, is capable of being controlled by an operator using a remote control, and operating autonomously along a pre-built route. Instead of a human, it can bypass mines, inspect mine workings, collect data, register potential risks for miners and emergency locations where it is dangerous for a human to be. Testing in mines has shown that Dobrynya copes with these tasks successfully.
However, this robot dog is not of domestic production: Deep Robotics X20 is from China. According to the manufacturers on the website, the robot can carry a load of up to 20 kg, work without recharging for up to 4 hours in extreme conditions, and overcome various obstacles in its path.
