00:00Kishan from All India Robotics Association is going to tell us how robots are being used in Sri Selam tunnel.
00:16Sir, what is the purpose of this technology?
00:22My name is Kishan and I am the chairman of All India Robotics Association.
00:26All India Robotics Association is one of the companies that we have.
00:29When we received the report from the state government, we understood that this is the most disastrous tunnel incident that has ever happened in India.
00:38This has never happened before.
00:41Generally, there are dangerous robots that come out of Israel.
00:50When we enquired in India, we found it at All India Robotics Association.
00:53We have redesigned this robot for the tunnel dimensions.
00:58With this, another company called Janju Technologies and another startup called H-Bots have joined us.
01:03With the support of these three companies, we have deployed four robots in this tunnel.
01:07In these three processes, one of the communication system has already been done from yesterday.
01:12The other one is going inside today.
01:14With the help of vacuum suckers, every sludge that is removed will be piped up to 100 meters on the conveyor belt.
01:21What does this machine do?
01:23It only picks up mud.
01:24You know the conditions inside.
01:26How are the conditions inside?
01:27How does it work?
01:29Basically, the major issue we have is that the last dead zone is 50 meters.
01:33That is a completely dangerous zone.
01:35According to the seismology report given by NDRF and SDRF, they were told to be careful in that dangerous zone.
01:40This robot can operate from 2 kilometers away.
01:44There is no manual intervention until then.
01:46It is in automatic mode.
01:47It is in automatic mode.
01:48But we are not turning on the automatic mode today because people are already trapped inside.
01:51We do not know what stage they are in.
01:53So, this is self-automated.
01:55It operates manually with the help of a remote.
01:57AI models are placed outside the communication system.
02:00If humans are seen anywhere from those models, it will slow down and be removed.
02:05How many robots do you want to use today?
02:09There are three in total.
02:10This is the only one that has been reworked.
02:13Two more are starting today.
02:15They will be here by midnight.
02:16There should be a vacuum sugar for this.
02:17It is called super sugar.
02:18It is available only in India, GHMC and Mumbai.
02:22Super sugar does not fall into the tunnel.
02:24The same is manufactured for compact tunnel size.
02:28We have approved it.
02:29So, that is also going this evening.
02:31Have you used this anywhere before?
02:35We have not used it in many incidents like this.
02:39But generally, it is used in tunnels and mining.
02:43So, you have sand inside, right?
02:46How do you increase it?
02:48You are saying that you are sending only sand to the conveyor belt.
02:51So, there is no sand there.
02:53The sand is also hard.
02:54How do you do that?
02:56The water is also uncomfortable when humans drink.
02:59So, how do you increase it?
03:01Basically, when we observed inside,
03:03Pebbles, large pebbles, short pebbles, sludge,
03:06complete watery sludge and cement sludge were seen.
03:08So, what it does is, it cuts and goes.
03:10It did not cut an iron.
03:12So, it removes the sludge.
03:14It divides the sludge into three different parts
03:18and goes from three different pipes to the conveyor belt.
03:22So, it does not get stuck anywhere.
03:24When iron comes, there is a manual intervention.
03:26But the first precaution we took was,
03:28if there is a 50-meter dead zone,
03:30if you clear that dead zone to the maximum,
03:32if it is possible to go manually,
03:34they will go.
03:35Or, to cut iron accordingly,
03:38the robot is modified again.
03:40So, there is a dangerous zone there.
03:42So, robotics is also dangerous.
03:44If something unexpected happens, robotics is also a problem.
03:46So, did you include any system to prevent this danger?
03:49For that, AI model communication system
03:51has already been established.
03:52So, these are the data we have already taken from the seismology department.
03:55Real-time data that is happening inside,
03:57by assessing both,
03:58they get an alert 30 minutes in advance.
04:00So, that is the maximum we could build,
04:02at the present time.
04:03We will develop this a little and go.
04:05Now, how much soil does it dig?
04:08It takes a lot of time for them to dig.
04:10So, how much soil does it dig?
04:11How much does one dig?
04:12How much do you want to use?
04:14How much opportunity do you get?
04:16Basically, its capacity is 1000 m3 per hour.
04:19But vacuum sucker is important for this.
04:22So, vacuum sucker,
04:23when we press it,
04:24it is 500 m3 per hour.
04:26But today or tomorrow,
04:28these 3 days,
04:29we will start with 100-150 m3 per hour.
04:32Depending on the situation inside,
04:34we will increase it little by little.
04:35Because, as I again said,
04:36last 50 m is complete dead zone.
04:38And already,
04:39the tunnel is tilted a little.
04:41So, based on that,
04:42we will start slowly.
04:44So, how many days do you think it will take?
04:46There is 1000 m3 of soil there.
04:49So, maybe,
04:50how much is your estimate?
04:51Our first target is,
04:5350 m3,
04:54whatever it is,
04:55the state government asked us
04:56to remove it first.
04:58So, we are focusing on that first.
05:00After that,
05:01it continues.
05:03Till,
05:04till the tunnel becomes normal,
05:07the robots will be inside.
05:09This is the information
05:10they are saying based on robotics.
05:12With the help of robotics,
05:14they are saying that
05:15they will earn more results.
05:16They are expressing their expectations.
05:18They are using this vacuum sucker.
05:20Directly,
05:21it comes out by spraying on the conveyor belt.
