An official from the National Fire Agency stated, "The success of this Sillim-Bongcheon Tunnel demonstration is an example showing that advanced robot technology can protect the safety of firefighters and maximize suppression efficiency in a special disaster environment called a long tunnel. Based on verified data, we will establish it as an essential equipment for tunnel fire response plans, such as pushing the advancement of unmanned firefighting robot performance." This is a passage praising the department's planning ability and advanced technology introduction achievements, saying it overcame the limitations of underground tunnels with a joint communication system linking four-legged walking robots and mobility robots and proved initial suppression capabilities. The gorgeous roadmap, including the successful expansion of radio waves over 1km, precise water discharge capability through thermal imaging cameras, and the plan to enact unmanned firefighting robot operation guidelines upcoming September, gives an impression as if the National Tax Service is leading tremendous technological innovation to build a future-oriented disaster response system. However, leaving aside verification of effectiveness against complex site variables such as variable toxic gas emissions in actual fire sites, internal tunnel collapses, and physical entry obstacles caused by chain vehicular collisions, the practice of emphasizing only quantitative figures of communication distance extension is a specimen of typical 'performance packaging exhibition administration.'
The biggest blind spot of this demonstration project is that the activities of unmanned firefighting robots grandly advertised by the National Fire Agency are trapped in a 'success inside a laboratory' that is difficult to operate in extreme situations of actual large-scale tunnel fires. Although they claim to have increased the communication distance to 1km, long-term reliability evaluations on whether the robot's unique precision sensors and electric batteries can endure without malfunctioning inside a tunnel covered with high heat and heavy smoke are still lacking. Furthermore, the tactic of a robot 'reverse-entering' avoiding obstacles to the front of a fire point inside a tunnel tightly blocked by traffic congestion is close to a desk theory that ignores site reality. Considering the characteristics of long tunnels where explosion risks always exist, such as large logistics truck fires or chemical leaks, declaring that the paradigm of tunnel fire response has changed with merely a one-off test result of 'successful water discharge' is just a premature champagne popping born of performance anxiety.
In addition, the passage promoting by fixing institutional schedules, saying they would enact guidelines in September and amend the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) following the final cluster operation demonstration in July, is also a typical administrative convenience-oriented idea. Infrastructure construction budgets centered on the field, such as improving the skill levels of field personnel, securing specialized maintenance personnel, and installing wireless repeaters for each long tunnel nationwide, have not been clearly secured. The idea of organizing it as a core resource of the national disaster response system by putting forward the completion of administrative procedures like guideline enactment and procedure amendment as achievements clearly shows the epitome of inertia administration urgent in filling report achievements rather than field safety.
Strengthening disaster response capabilities using advanced technology is not completed with simple robot driving tests or one-off guideline enactments. Now is the time to break away from the framework of showy technology exhibition administration that expends budgets and administrative power on operating success of a few prototype robots. The National Fire Agency must immediately stop press release politics packaging successful derivation of demonstration data as achievements. Instead, it should institutionalize repeated durability verifications in harsh environments similar to actual fire sites, and construct a permanent technical education infrastructure centered on field personnel so that frontline fire stations can operate equipment immediately. Furthermore, only when concentrating all efforts on structural safety net advancement that remotely links firefighting facilities of major long tunnels nationwide with robot communication networks, the sincerity of advanced fire administration will shine.
