Discover the incredible, true story of how rescue and recovery efforts at the World Trade Center on 9/11/2001 included highly secretive military robots. The reason for their presence lies somewhere between the wild conjectures of conspiracy theorists and the over-inflated claims of success by academics and entrepreneurs. Lieutenant Colonel John G. Blitch makes a case for robot-assisted rescue, detailing how mechanical design freedom can allow heroic humans to penetrate deep into denied areas and gain access to victims trapped far beyond the reach of current rescue teams’ physical limitations. He argues that specially trained athletic operators are vital to compensate for the mobility, empathy, and logistical shortfalls of a portable robot. Dr. Blitch also explains how fully autonomous unmanned systems can act as a dangerous accountability insulator between humans in both love and war, inspiring brilliant roboticists and future heroes to focus on saving lives rather than taking them.
