The new Dragon Runner 10 (DR10) is built around the basic Dragon Runner design and is intended for military and first responder duties. At just 15 inches (38 cm) long, 13.5 inches (34 cm) wide and 5.8 inches (15 cm) tall, and weighing just under 10 pounds (4.5 kg), the DR10 is small and light enough to be carried in a standard-issue pack and be thrown into buildings and hostile environments for reconnaissance and surveillance missions. </p> <p><strong>« Back to <a class="blue" href="/web/20120129213534/http://www.gizmag.com/qinetiq-dragon-runner-10/19568/">Dragon Runner 10 joins QinetiQ抯 micro unmanned robot family</a></strong></p> </div> <div id="gallery_island"> <script type="text/javascript"> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display("gallery_island");
