Homeland Security; Emergency Response; Test Arena for Robots and Dogs; Millsaps |
| Description: |
Police Officer Michael Millsaps Jr. of the Amtrak Police Department rewards his dog Bak for finding a hidden gun under debris at the NIST reference test arena for urban search and rescue and explosive ordnance disposal robots. The white transmitters worn by both Millsaps and Bak can be used to track and record their movements as they proceed through the arena. Similar transmitters are attached to rescue robots and are used to analyze searching performance.
