The Kansas City fire brigade reveals a new fire brigade robot: “Time, resources, live”

Kansas City, Mo. (KCTV) – On Saturday, Kansas City's fire brigade announced the successful initiation of her latest member – a fire brigade robot.

According to KCFD, a fire broke out in the Batliner Recycling in the northeast of Kansas City on March 15 at 6:45 a.m. The crews found several followers on the west side of the property and several large stacks of recyclable materials.

Several additional companies were sent to help with the redemption efforts. The nearby railway lines allegedly had to be closed to bring enough water pipes to the scene.

KCFD also used its new robot with remote control for the first time.

The robot is equipped with several cameras, including thermal imaging, a front blade for debris, persecuted mobility for the operation and accessibility and is supplied by several supply lines that produce more than 2500 gallons per minute of water for fire suppression, ”said KCFD in a release.

It can be used in offensive or defensive firefighters and even in the underground caves of Kansas City. The department found that the robot in situations that firefighters represent a “great risk” is particularly needed.

“The Kansas City fire brigade continues to keep this technology up to date with the fire brigade and contributes to our famous story in our industry,” KCFD continued.

The recycling fire was released until 9 a.m., but the crews remained on site to continue working on Hot Spots throughout the property. The cause remains examined.
