This video is a test showing some of the mechanical capabilities of the new Red Shirt Robotics T1. The T1 is a force multiplier, it's meant to provide light armored support for an infantry force where a tank or other mechanized, manned vehicals may be inappropriate or vulnerable. Likewise the robot is also fantastic for tasks where operator safety is paramount, as it removes the operator from the field of operations and safely performs tasks too dangerous to send a man. Currently we have it operating via 2.4 gH radio, but this is only a temporary control system. The robot will ship with an encrypted NSA Suite B radio and will conform to best practices for wireless security. The robot is teleoperated via a low-latency/high-resolution camera system, which is expandable to night/thermal vision if necessary. The T1 also mounts a suite of onboard user configurable and controlled weaponry including a flamethrower/OC sprayer and a 37mm launcher. Additional weapons, utility components and tools can be added if the mission requirements dictate. The T1 is proudly made in North Carolina, USA, Earth.
