Successful Scorpio
A U.K robot craft saved seven Russian sailors lives
trapped in a net 190 metres in the Pacific Ocean on Sunday the 7th
of August 2005.
Firstly the Russian sailors found out they were trapped
so they decided to call for help. It took three days for the robot to come
because it was made in Glasgow Scotland.
The robot that saved the seven Russian sailors lives
was called Scorpio 45. He was made for the Ministry of defence by Cumbria -
based firm James Fisher Rumic.
However Scorpio 45 is the size of a double bed and
caries 3 cameras, sonar systems, propulsion systems, hydraulic power,
electrical power, pumps, cutting equipment and also has a manipulator arm.
Finally a boat came to rescue the seven Russian
sailors. When it came the Russian sailors were very happy. As soon as they got
home to their family they all started crying with joy because they missed each
other.
