Mission

Save American lives by replacing conventional combat roles.

Theory

Humans driving, carrying, and emplacing robots that operate fully autonomously will be the hallmark of the next 50 years of war. Focusing on local firing-sensor/counter-sensor technology now will enable us to be significantly ahead of what happens next. With overhead EM-defeat UAS, any use of EM spectrum will be responded to with accurate counter-fire. Similarly, any movement in the open will be detected from overhead by loitering UAS and destroyed with IDF. Destroying enemy UAS and keeping yours in the air will be a priority.

Goals

  1. Demonstrate a real world CV-aimed firing sensor/counter-sensor pairing, with and without human-in-the-loop
  2. Generalize the performance of an agent trained with Reinforcement Learning in a First-Person Shooter environment to human level performance in the real world on a stationary platform.
  3. Generalize the performance of an agent to human level performance in the real world on a ruck-mounted platform.
  4. Remove the need for a human to carry the system around.
