The exhibition of the experimental laboratory of TsNIITOCHMASH OJSC presents the latest developments of Rostec research institutes - the prototypes of the Rys-BP and Avatar robots, as well as the army exoskeleton. These developments were briefly reported earlier, but they were shown to the public only now.
"Lynx-BP" and "Avatar" can be used for rescue, in astronautics ("Avatar"), as well as fighting robots with the appropriate weapons.
"Avatar"
The anthropomorphic robot "Avatar" is being created in the NGO "Android Technique" and the FSUE "TsNIImash" with the support of the Advanced Research Foundation. This robot will overcome the obstacle course and drive vehicles, as American robots did at the DARPA competition . ')
“The work program for this project provides for testing the robot at the obstacle course at the end of the year. Avatar has to overcome its elements, demonstrate the ability to control various technical devices, including a car, to climb the stairs, ” said Vitaly Davydov, Deputy General Director of the Foundation.
Initially, the creation of an anthropomorphic robot was carried out in the interests of the Emergencies Ministry for rescue work. However, it was subsequently taken into account that most of the components of the rescue robot can also be used for solving military tasks, as well as in astronautics .
“Avatar will be one of the crew members of the future Russian national orbital station,” said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin in February. Such development will allow, without a special spacesuit, to go into outer space and, under the control of an operator-astronaut under protection, carry out particularly complex operations on board the spacecraft.
"Lynx-BP"
“Lynx-BP” is a biomorphic robot, that is, similar to an animal, on four legs. They plan to arm it not only with a machine gun, but also with anti-tank guided missiles, said Vladimir Shashok, director general of the enterprise developing the Lynx enterprise, the Signal Research Institute. According to him, three variants of target load are considered: an intelligence robot, a combat support robot and a robot for carrying goods. “The combat robot will most likely be equipped with a machine gun, and the installation of an ATGM is possible,” he said.
The robot must be able to move on any surfaces and water up to 40 cm in depth, overcome thresholds up to 500 mm, staircases of industrial buildings with an inclination angle of up to 30 ° and a step height of 200 mm, trenches up to 500 mm wide and walls up to 400 mm high and up to 300 mm wide.
On the plain, the robot will reach speeds of up to 15 km / h, over rough terrain - up to 10 km / h.
State tests "Lynx-BP" is scheduled to be held in 2019.

Exoskeleton
On the military exoskeleton details have not been disclosed. Judging by the photos, with his help, the fighter will fix the arm with the weapon in a bent state. The load from the shoulder is transferred to the back.
The presented robots will find application in the Ministry of Emergency Situations, astronautics, in the Russian army and abroad: a significant amount of Rostec weapons is supplied for export.
In addition to robots, TsNIITOCHMASH also showed a lot of interesting things. For example, a test girl, a blonde, showed off a new protective suit for the army, walking through a minefield through flames and explosions. Pyrotechnics exploded spectacularly under her feet.
Vice Prime Minister Rogozin compared the girl with the Terminator.
