PackBot

PackBot is a series of military robots by iRobot, an international robotics company founded in 1990. More than 2000 were used in Iraq and Afghanistan. They were then used again to aid searching through the debris of the world trade center after 9/11 in 2001. Another instance of the PackBot technology being implemented was to the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant after the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami where they were the first to assess the site. As of November 2014, the U.S. Army is refurbishing 224 iRobot 510 robots. The PackBot technology is also used in collaboration with NASA for their rovers and probes.

The company iboot is focused on researching and developing robot technologies. The company also partakes in "a future for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education" as an educational outreach. The company achieved $617 million in revenue in 2015. There are also offices located in multiple countries around the world. Below is a brief history of the company:
