rapid response to disasters such as fires and floods in main line and metro tunnels. Mounted on a guide rail adjacent to the track, the robot would arrive on site within 5 min and guide passengers via audio and LED indicators to a safe zone while providing critical site information to the control centre.</p> <div class="inline_image image_size_full fullsize" data-attachment="67446" data-sequence="1"><button class="show-fullscreen" data-url="/attachment?attype=P&atcode=67446&storycode=67380">Show Fullscreen</button> <p class="picture"><img alt="KRRI InnoTrans material (Image KRRI) (8)" src="https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/480xany/4/4/6/67446_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri8_547867.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 780px" srcset="https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/480xany/4/4/6/67446_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri8_547867.jpg 480w,https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/600xany/4/4/6/67446_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri8_547867.jpg 600w,https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/780xany/4/4/6/67446_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri8_547867.jpg 780w" loading="lazy" class="lazyloaded" width="1920" height="1200"></p> </div> <p>It would also be able to supervise track maintenance tasks and monitor environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and dust as well as detect abnormal factors such as smoke and high temperature.</p> <p>It has passed tests for operation at up to 18 km/h and withstanding fire temperatures of 250°C for up to 30 min.</p> <p>The robot is currently undergoing further testing including running over a 200 m guideway at KRRI’s test centre in Osong.</p> <h4>Hyper Tube</h4> <p>KRRI will also be showing its version of low-pressure maglev technology, which it has branded HTX. Targeting operation at 1 000 km/h, Hyper Tube eXpress is designed to be an ultra-speed ground transport alternative to aviation. It would work with superconducting propulsion and levitation in a double-shell concrete-epoxy sealed tube. The vehicles would be constructed using carbon fibre composite bodies.</p> <div class="inline_image image_size_full fullsize" data-attachment="67452" data-sequence="7"><button class="show-fullscreen" data-url="/attachment?attype=P&atcode=67452&storycode=67380">Show Fullscreen</button> <p class="picture"><img alt="KRRI InnoTrans material (Image KRRI) (2)" src="https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/480xany/4/5/2/67452_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri2_438183.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 780px" srcset="https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/480xany/4/5/2/67452_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri2_438183.jpg 480w,https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/600xany/4/5/2/67452_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri2_438183.jpg 600w,https://d1c4d7gnm6as1q.cloudfront.net/Pictures/780xany/4/5/2/67452_krriinnotransmaterialimagekrri2_438183.jpg 780w" loading="lazy" class="lazyloaded" width="1920" height="1200"></p> </div> <p>The technologies have been under development at KRRI since 2016, and a test track and research and development centre are planned to be set up next year ahead of a test programme running until 2032.
