The US Army has taken steps towards creating a "Phantom Menace" army, or one that is not manned by human beings. This includes the development robots that can perform tasks that human beings are incapable of. These systems can be integrated with other troops, protecting them from harm and keeping them out of harm's path.
Future battlefields will also be able to benefit from the use of robotic systems as force multipliers. They can also provide new data and sensors can be positioned in new positions. They are also capable of clearing landmines from war-torn areas. They still have a lot to do before they can join the Army ranks.
Currently, the Army has three major programs to test military robots. The Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle is one of the major programs to test military robots. It replaces the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle. Another option is the Tracked Robot 10 Ton, or TRX. It was developed using technologies discovered in the Small Multipurpose Equipment Transport program.
There are also plans for a two arm robot. This would allow it to fire non-lethal rubber rounds or a powerful "elephant kill" bullet.
Artificial intelligence is a promising project. An artificial intelligence robot can learn to do a task simply by watching video streams and communicating with a human instructor. The robot may then be able complete the task by itself.
Robotics have become more realistic. But, they cannot replace humans in combat situations. In fact, AI-based robots are still learning tactics, whereas human arms have seven degrees of freedom.
An artificial intelligence system was established by the Army to train robots. Robots can be trained to do the same tasks as humans using machine learning algorithms. The AI can only do this if there are enough training data. If the system doesn't have enough data, it can turn to human demonstrations.
The robots' ability and willingness to adapt to their surroundings is another important aspect of the artificial Intelligence System. The robots can react to changes in their environment by using various sensors such as heat and chemical sensors. For example, if a chemical contaminant or heat source is detected, the robot will be able to adjust its own behavior to avoid a collision.
To ensure robots can operate safely, the Army is using other systems in addition to artificial Intelligence. These systems will include a standard operations order, or SOA, which will give humans a set of guidelines to follow when making decisions. Humans will be able to interpret and define the information that they receive through the SOA. For example, if a person is searching for an object, they might say "Turn left" (or "Turn right")
The artificial intelligence system can also teach robots to learn certain tasks. The artificial intelligence system will also consider distance and proximity when a robot attempts avoid a collision.
