The TAF 20 robot is being used by firefighters to help put out fires in New South Wales. The robot is equipped with a high-powered fan that can clean smoke from a building, then spray water mist or foam from a distance of 60m and blast water from 90m away. The robot is also built with a bulldozer blade, which is used to clear objects in its path such as cars or debris following an explosion. The TAF 20 is designed to be remotely operated by a human up to 500m away, meaning that human firefighters can send the robot into dangerous situations, before they approach the fire.
