Army neuroscientists foresee intelligent agents on the battlefield

Published on Apr 30, 2018

The battlefield of the future will be complex, with mountains of data moving rapidly between commanders, operations centers and the joint warfighter. In this multi-faceted environment, Army researchers and their partners are seeking solutions.

The U.S. Army Research Laboratory formed an alliance in 2010 with universities and industry to enable “revolutionary advances” in Soldier systems technology by merging neuroscience, psychology, engineering and human factors to deliver those solutions.

Through the Robot's Eyes

Sep 30, 2019

The U.S. Army wants robotic ground vehicles to operate as Soldier teammates. To do that, robots must operate autonomously and be able to help a Soldier’s see into places too dangerous to investigate and move into places too risky to navigate.

Talking with robots

When it comes to robotics research, advancements in speech and natural language processing plus gestures and pointing, user interfaces and visual perceptions combine to create capabilities that enable ground robotic systems to operate truly as teammates. A 10-year research effort led by Army, industry and academic scientists has shown that robots are capable of operating on their own – without being tele-operated by a Soldier’s control – in environments they’ve never seen before and the robots are able to reason about their environments enough to perform tasks such locate buildings or items of interests or rally to designated locations. Check out how in this Army-produced video.

Army Robotics Research overview

Oct 18, 2019

10 years of advanced robotics research culminates Oct. 17, 2019, at the National Robotics Engineering Center in Pittsburgh. The US Army has led the Robotics Collaborative Technology Alliance, a group of leading academic and industry scientists and engineers, resulting in new robotic capabilities, artificial intelligence advances and a clear vision for the future. American Soldiers will benefit from this foundational research! Congratulations, team!
