2

A turbine-aided firefighting robot, otherwise known as the TAF 20, will be on the front line in New South Wales (NSW) after it was unveiled Thursday in Sydney by the Minister for Emergency Services David Elliott and Fire and Rescue NSW Commissioner Greg MullinsAmong its range of robotic capabilities, the TAF 20 can shoot a stream of water at 90 metres (295 feet), as well as spray foam or mist at 60 metres (197 feet). In addition, the TAF 20 has a high-powered fan able to clear smoke from a room. "It can be remotely operated up to 500 metres (1,640 feet) away and sent into situations where it is too dangerous for firefighters, which is a huge advantage as the safety of firefighters is my highest priority," Mullins said in an emailed statement. "It also has a bulldozer blade which can clear obstacles like cars during a tunnel incident, or debris following an explosion."
