The story of the terrorist leader Noordin M Top and his gang in Indonesia seems to inspire Kartiko. Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics Department of the Technical University of Gadjah Mada was successfully created a bomb disposal robot.
Inspiration to make the bomb squad's robot, poured Kartiko, student of 2003 through the end of the thesis entitled "Design of Electronic System robot bomb disposal" in order to obtain his degree at GMU. He graduated in January and February were inaugurated two months ago. "For the final thesis that value is A," said his conversations Kartiko in to Tempo, early April.
Kartiko, Blitar born March 16, 1985, although large in Balikpapan. With a 3.18 GPA, graduation relatively slow due to exceeding the schedule given to the university. "It's because of economic problems since my college semesters 5-8 hiccup," he said.
At UGM, the bomb squad robot was created for the first time. Bomb squad robot works are complete. "Got a camera, arms, tanks, and wheels," he said.
The robot is controlled by remote control. Now for the remote control was the brainchild of lecturer Kartiko acknowledged mentor, Ir. Priyatmadi MT. Remote control is then developed Kartiko to drive robot motion is detected when there is a bomb somewhere.
Via remote control, the robot will be controlled remotely. Well while walking robot carrying a camera, then the movement can be monitored by TV cameras. The robot will detect bombs and recognize all the bombs that were nearby.
Priyatmadi bomb disposal robot was admitted for the first time initiated by students in the final thesis. Indeed, the word Priyatmadi, bomb disposal robot will be destroyed once observed there was a bomb in the vicinity. "The robot was sacrificed instead of human life must be sacrificed," he said.
According to him, it was time for Indonesia to get serious about building a robot industry. With the robot, the more advanced industries and production can be increased in Indonesia. [Tempo]
