Abstract
The author proposes “Telemetric Rescue Dummy (TRD)”, which can simulate a victim for evaluating rescue equipments and rescue robots. In various fields, dummies that simulate human bodies have been developed until now. By contrast to them, functions required for simulating rescue tasks are discussed. Then the concept of telemetric rescue dummy is clarified. Moreover, DAMIYAN, dummy developed for the 1st Rescue Robot Contest, is introduced as a concrete example of the TRD.
