Throwbot 2 at United Kingdom

ReconRobotics developed the Throwbot 2 (TB2), a throwable micro-robot platform used by military and law enforcement teams to obtain live video and audio reconnaissance in indoor and outdoor environments without entering the space. The Throwbot 2 provides up to 110 minutes of runtime from a single lithium-polymer battery and includes both visible-light and infrared imaging for low-light operations. It is the successor to the Throwbot XT and is deployed by public safety and military units across multiple countries.
