According to the news portal "
Interfax", Deputy Director General of the Foundation for Advanced Studies (FPI), Igor Denisov, reported that the developed robotic
platform "Nerekhta-2" will be able to move in conditions of poor visibility, assist fighters in eliminating heavy targets and understand speech.
"Nerekhta-2" is not a complete product, but a platform on which various technologies will be developed, in particular, technical vision and the associated algorithm for recognizing obstacles and automatic movement under noisy conditions: smoke, rain, snow, and much more.
- explained I. Denisov.
Nerekhta-2
Among other technologies on this platform, new energy supply and electric propulsion systems are being developed: promising hybrid drive systems and new batteries, new types of electric motors with high specific characteristics. The deployment of various equipment contributes to the modular principle of the platform. At the same time, unified management standards, unified seats are determined.
"Nerekhta-2", unlike its predecessor, will include a component that will allow you to work together with a person. These are devices and interfaces built into combat equipment that will help you manage
robot on the battlefield, where it is impossible to use a joystick and a computer, as it is today. This is speech control using a laryngphone - naturally, no one will shout commands on the battlefield, this is gesture control.
(Apparently, under the predecessor was meant the complex "DUM" - a remote-controlled machine. Weight around 1 t. Armed with a 7,62-mm PKT machine gun. Control radius to 1,5 km. Presented to the public in 2010, -
IN).
"DUM"
In his words, promising systems for targeting individual rifle
weapons will give the robot the opportunity to observe the battlefield through the eyes of a human operator.
And then he will be able to act as an assistant to a person in solving tasks of hitting targets that a soldier cannot hit or does not manage to hit from his personal weapon, but a robot can.
The composition of the robotic complex "Nerekhta-2" is supposed to include light air
drones vertical takeoff, which will positively affect the efficiency of the system as a whole.
At the same time, a person can use the heavy weapons of the platform, observe the situation with "eyes"
drones, thereby significantly expanding their physical and combat capabilities.
