SRI International to Demonstrate Taurus Dexterous Robot at NDIA Ground Robotics Conference

MENLO PARK, Calif., March 20, 2012

    WHAT:                    SRI will demonstrate its Taurus robot, a
                             high fidelity telemanipulation tool with
                             a 3D HD display. Taurus was designed for
                             bomb squad technicians to remotely engage
                             with improvised explosive devices. It
                             enables surgical-like precision in a
                             modular, portable, compact frame.
                             Weighing less than 15 lb, Taurus may be
                             used as a tool on the end of an existing
                             deployed base of bomb squad robots, or it
                             can be easily integrated into portable
                             formats or other systems.

    WHEN:                   March 21 - 23, 2012

    WHERE:                  Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina
                            San Diego, CA
                            SRI Booth #216

    WHO:                     Thomas P. Low is the Associate Director of
                             the Medical Systems and Telerobotics
                             program in the Engineering and Systems
                             Division at SRI. In this role, he leads a
                             team of engineers and scientists in
                             developing new medical devices, consumer
                             products and technologies for commercial
                             and government clients. He has experience
                             in program management, robotics, software
                             development, mechanical design and
                             medical product development, computer-
                             aided engineering, design for
                             manufacturability, electromechanical
                             systems, sensor development, real-time
                             computer graphics, and dynamic
                             simulation.
