The word robot is usually
used to refer to a
mechanical agent that
performs one or more tasks
in which it mimics a human
either , through
programming or commands.
Autonomous or remote-
controlled devices that are
capable of taking
surveillance photographs,
and even accurately
launching missiles at ground
targets, without a pilot.
What is Robot ? What are Military Robots ?
3. Job of Soldier is no walk in the PARK.
Difficult Tasks
I. Walking through minefields
II. deactivating unexploded bombs
III. clearing out hostile buildings
Robots to do these jobs instead of humans.
To operate in a relatively unstructured, natural environment.
Replacing human in dangerous, dirty, or dull missions .
Bear cost to build the robot instead of losing a human life.
4. Goliath Tracked Mines & Soviet tele-tanks
In 1940’s military robots date back to
World War II and the Cold War in the
form of the German Goliath Tracked
Mines and the Soviet tele-tanks.
1960s and '70s - Reconnaissance
Drones, which were airplane look-a-
like robots, that flew a great
distance and gathered information
on a target.
History
1980s – The Robotic Ranger which
was a ground vehicle 2002 - First
UAV Dogfight – identical to the first
reconnaissance drone, except it also
bombed targets rather than just
getting information.
5. Types of Military Robot
Dragon Runner
Talon
Packbot
MQ 1- Predator
Talisman

6. Details
• Built for urban
combat.
• Has four wheels, 15
inches long and 5
inches in height.
• Designed for areas
too dangerous or
inaccessible for
human soldiers.
• Main use is to relay
information such as
pictures back to the
soldier.
• A small , tracked
military robot
designed for missions
ranging from
reconnaissance to
combat.
• Grenade launcher ,
machine gun and rifle
can be placed on this
robot
• Smaller and lighter than
the TALON .
• Man – protable.
• Controlled by a Pentium
processor.
• Packbot has a GPS system ,
an electronic compass and
temperature sensors built
in.
• Main use is to find out
where enemy is hiding ,
but also searches for
bombs and other dangers.
The General Atomics MQ-1
Predator is an American
Remotely piloted aircraft (RPA)
built by General Atomics and
used primarily by the (USAF)
and (CIA).
Two (pilot and sensor operator)
intelligence, surveillance,
reconnaissance, close air
support, combat search and
rescue, precision strike, buddy-
lase, convoy/raid over watch,
route clearance, target
development, and terminal air
guidance.

7. Details
Developed by Boston Dynamics
Quadruped robot
Walk , Run , Climbs on rough terrain –
Carries heavy loads.
Legs contain sensors, including joint
position and ground contact.
BigDog also features a laser gyroscope
and a stereo vision system.
On-board computer controls locomotion,
servos the legs and handles a wide
variety of sensors.
Big Dog's control system manages the
dynamics of its behavior to keep it
balanced, steer and navigate.
Designed primarily for -
Reconnaissance and Support .
Key Features :- Rugged,
flexible vehicle that can carry
huge payloads.
Navigate autonomously over
extreme terrain.
Runs on battery power
alone - silent operation.
Can carry weapons -
Combat roles down the line.
A robotic vehicle with
armor, sensors, guns and
missiles. With these,
tanks operated by
human crews will no
longer be needed, with
humans remotely-
controlling these robotic
vehicles miles away in a
safe location.

8. Disadvantages
There are many Disadvantages…..
Having a robotic army is that robot
armies could be hacked by the enemy and
can be used against you.
Another disadvantage is that robots can
malfunction and turn against you or just
explode in front of you.
Robots cannot tell right from wrong
meaning it could even kill civilians as well
as rebel allies if it sees them.
