3D-printed airless wheels let robots rescue the wounded

Original: 3D printed airless wheels help ground robots bring the wounded to safety

Ground robots fitted with 3D-printed airless wheels are being developed to carry wounded people out of danger zones. The puncture-proof wheels are printed in one piece, removing the risk of flats or debris damage during rescue missions over rough terrain. Coverage highlights how the design could make casualty evacuation safer where stretcher teams face gunfire, rubble or contaminated ground.

Why now: The design shows how additive manufacturing can make rescue robots more reliable in dangerous conditions.
