A new field and challenge in robotic research is how to effectively fuse the multidisciplinary knowledge such as robotic technology, rescue technology and disaster science, hence develop intelligent robots for the search and rescue operations. In recent years, especially after the 9.11 attack, many countries in the world began to develop various anti-explosive/ anti-terrorism robots as well as search and rescue robots for disaster protections and relief in the sight of their national security strategies. According to the exiting research of search and rescue robots in the world and the experiences and lessons learned in their application in the 9.11 attack, the most key performances required for a search and rescue robot are survivability, mobility, sensor, communication and operation [11, 22, [24] [25] [26] .	./cache/cord-021102-lqwyomxz.txt	./txt/cord-021102-lqwyomxz.txt
