The Future of Weapons: Advanced Warfighting Experiment
Published on Sep 4, 2014
Quote:
The United States Marine Corps Warfighting Lab conducted an Advanced Warfighting Experiment as part of the Rim of the Pacific Exercise July 9 - 14, 2014. As threats to America's global interests evolve and manifest in new ways, the Marine Corps will step out smartly to assess its own methodologies, composition and equipment requirements to ensure effectiveness in a rapidly changing environment. The AWE is part of the Marine Corps' commitment to rebalance and posture itself for future security environments around the world.

Real Tracking and Shooting Portal Turret
Published on May 9, 2012
Quote:
This is the final project for my Advanced Mechatronics class at Penn State University. The robot is the skeleton of a turret from the game Portal that uses an IP webcam to track a target and fire nerf bullets at them. This is the current state of the robot as of 5/9/12, but I am currently molding a shell for the frame to make it look like the Portal turret, along with improving my code to make the tracking faster. All programming is done with MATLAB and Arduino. Enjoy!

Robot warriors: technology and the regulation of war | Professor Noam Lubell | TEDxUniversityofEssex
Published on Nov 5, 2014
Quote:
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. War hasn’t gone away, but the way we fight has been fundamentally transformed by technological developments.
The legal regulation of war accepts that we will be unlikely to rid the world of conflict, and revolves around the balancing of military necessity and the principle of humanity.
It’s not always a case of military needs coming at the expense of protections – it’s also possible that new technologies might offer advantages in the protection of civilians and more generally minimising the destructive nature of war.
Noam Lubell is a Professor in the School of Law at the University of Essex. He has taught courses on international human rights law and the laws of armed conflict in a number of academic institutions, including the University of Essex, the National University of Ireland, the University of Oxford, the Geneva Academy, and as a Visiting Professor at Case Western Reserve University in the United States. Professor Lubell holds the Swiss Chair of International Humanitarian Law, at the Geneva Academy of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights, and is the Rapporteur of the International Law Association's Committee on the Use of Force.
In addition to his academic work, during the last fifteen years Professor Lubell has worked for various organisations including human rights NGOs dealing with the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, as Outreach Coordinator, International Law Advisor, and Director of a Prisoners and Detainees Project. From 2007-2011 he was a member of the Executive Committee of Amnesty International (Ireland). He has taught, researched and published on a variety of topics in the fields of international human rights law and the law of armed conflict. His recent book is Extraterritorial Force Against Non-state Actors (Oxford University Press).

Predator UAV Assembly and missions
Published on Apr 17, 2014
Quote:
Since 2008 the US Air Force has more than tripled the number of its active-duty pilots flying Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) - including MQ-1 Predator, MQ-9 Reaper and RQ-4 Global Hawk, as well as a number of operational types that are still secretive 'black' programs. Due to the increase in demand, and introduction of more capable platforms carrying multiple payloads, RPA pilots have had a significant increase in workload, and insufficient training, a report by the US Government Accountability Office determined.

The French Marine Nationale and the Royal Navy will be the first navies in the world to benefit from 2 fully unmanned mine warfare systems in the coming weeks. Based on surface and submarine robots and drones, this solution aims at keeping sailors away from the threat and will revolutionize the mine warfare domain. This system is also based on artificial intelligence technologies that will significantly improve the detection and identification of the threat and will be of prime importance for the operators in conducting their protection missions.

VICE gained exclusive access to a small fleet of US Army bomb disposal robots—the same platforms the military has weaponized—and to a pair of DARPA’s six-foot-tall bipedal humanoid robots. We also meet Nobel Peace Prize winner Jody Williams, renowned physicist Max Tegmark, and others who grapple with the specter of artificial intelligence, killer robots, and a technological precedent forged in the atomic age. It’s a story about the evolving relationship between humans and robots, and what AI in machines bodes for the future of war and the human race.

Doomsday Machine - Dead Hand / Perimeter System and Supercomputer NDMC
May 18, 2020
Quote:
NDMC is a military supercomputer with a speed of 16 petaflops. The storage capacity is 236 petabytes. The NDMC is designed to predict the development of armed conflicts and is able to analyze the situation and draw conclusions based on the info. about past military conflicts. The database of the NDMC contains data on the major armed conflicts of modernity for the efficient analysis of future threats. According to the Minister of Defense S.Shoigu of December 30, 2016, a 50% increase in the productivity and power of a NDMC increasing possibilities is not ruled out. The NDMC can continuously monitor troop movements, congestion in transport infrastructure, the publication of media publications and messages on social networks. Various incidents and their consequences are modeled, and the impact of weather conditions is assessed. Developed mathematical models allow us to calculate the optimal options for the execution of tasks. The NDMC successfully predicted and simulated scenarios of the negative development of the situation with opposition riots in Venezuela. The on-duty shift of specialists issued warnings two months, a month, 10 and 5 days before the exacerbation. The NDMC also learns to recognize the profiles of new enemy missiles and weapons.
Dead Hand ("Perimeter" System, with the GRAU Index 15E601) is a Cold War-era automatic nuclear weapons-control system. An example of fail-deadly and mutual assured destruction deterrence, it can automatically trigger the launch of the Russian ICBMs by sending a pre-entered highest-authority order from the General Staff of the Armed Forces, Strategic Missile Force Management to command posts and individual silos if a nuclear strike is detected by seismic, light, radioactivity, and pressure sensors even with the commanding elements fully destroyed. In order to ensure its functionality the system was originally designed as fully automatic, and with the ability to decide on the adequate retaliatory strike on its own with no (or minimal) human involvement in the event of an all-out attack. Upon activation and determination of the happening of a nuclear war, the system sends out a 15P011 command missile with a special 15B99 warhead which passes commands to
open all silos and all command centers of the RVSN with appropriate receivers in flight.
