Squishy Robotics develops rapidly deployable mobile sensing robots for disaster rescue, remote monitoring and space exploration. The company's technology was originally developed at NASA for space exploration and it utilizes robotics, mobile sensing, machine learning, big data fusion and smart IoT (Internet of Things) technologies. The first target market for Squishy Robotics is HazMat and CBRNE (Chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive) response, using robots to secure the safety of first responders by provide situational awareness and sensor data in uncharted terrain. Multiple collaborative squishy robots - equipped with visual, audio, chemical, biological, radiological and GPS sensors - are able to traverse rough environments and be quickly deployed by ground or dropped from 600 feet in the sky in order to inform first responders, and assist in the rescue of victims until human first responders can arrive.
