  • @xponen well.... i don't believe that it's true. although it could be, as far as i know, earth orbiters have immense amounts of radiation going through them, even more so outside earth magnetosphere. also ive heard that pilots are exposed to more radiation than nuclear plant workers. heh. but ye, on other hand im not so sure about the exact numbers and such. but electronics can and do function in intensive radiation environments, given a proper design.

  • @MrPtitzzz Wikipedia says: the Chernobly debris heap is at least 10,000 rem, while NASA report that "major solar proton flare" few week before Apollo 12 mission is 100 rem. So Chernobly debris heap is incredibly radioative, much more that a "major solar proton flare" do. source: Chernobly disaster Wikipedia, 'radbelts gsfc nasa gov/outreach/effects html'

  • This suit might be useful in hazardous environment but can you run with that?.Imagine if a building collapses and you have minutes to get your legs running.What will happen?.Secondly,like the 'TheJtensen' said will the electronics work in Radiation area?.I still remember the incident took place somewhere in Russia where the electronics failed not because of melting but because of a anomaly called "Whiskering" which took place in electronics board.But shielding with Pb will work.Anyway,Good Work!

  • @LearnRobotics This is gen-i. No doubt this tech will improve.

  • by tha way, whats that thing at 0:10

  • crysis in the making...

  • GUNDAMMMMMMM

  • Now thats cool.

  • Not long now until powered armor.

  • do you know if the elektronics is shildet against the radiation? at the tjernobyl acident thy had a robot that mailfunction becus of the radiation. i know that it was in hi radiation but the led vest had to be drobd if the exoskelet mailfunktiond, exposing the humen to radiation.

  • @TheJtjensen they probably are. they got sats flyin up in space and doing fine, i can imagine if they made a specialised robot to function in high radiation environment they mustve thought it through.

  • @MrPtitzzz you are probably right

  • @MrPtitzzz I believe Space has less radiation than directly above a broken chernobly reactor. eg: if you flew a helicopter directly above the reactor (to drop a robot or somethings): the pilot will die instantly.

  • @xponen there is a documentary about Chernobly in youtube...
