The Russian MARS A-800 robotic system will conduct reconnaissance, deliver ammunition and evacuate the wounded.
According to the developers, “the A-800 system is intended for escorting infantry, transport and logistics support: it can carry up to 6 people, transport various cargo, including ammunition, has a volume of 800 l and can be equipped with various special equipment and armament. "
At the heart of the electronic filling machine is a system of autonomous transport management, developed by the Ryazan KB "Aurora". “By receiving data from video cameras, laser scanners, GLONASS receiver and inertial navigation system, the machine is able to independently plan a route and move on rough terrain. The control system is compatible with any outfit, including the “Warrior”, ”the developers explained.
According to the information spread at the exhibition, the machine is made on the basis of a tracked amphibious platform. “The platform has an engine up to 65 hp, which allows it to reach speeds of up to 35 km / h and transport kg of payload to 500. Power reserve as standard - up to 200 km. In case of installing a fuel tank of increased capacity, the power reserve may increase to 500 km. Landing is provided with a parachute system. ”
There is a built-in generator, with which you can supply the camp with electricity or recharge the batteries.
Key A-800 scenarios:
""Follow me". Operator MARS A-800 fixes an active tag on his equipment. The platform tracks the tag movement and follows it. The settings select the nature of the movement and the distance to the master. While driving, the system independently paves the route, avoiding the obstacles encountered.
"Track". It is carried out by target designation on the map or by pre-saved points. In this mode, MARS A-800 can autonomously deliver cargo (food, ammunition), evacuate the wounded, carry out reconnaissance.
"Cyclic race". Cycling along a predetermined route, observing and detecting targets, tracking data from video cameras and radars.
"Telecontrol". The platform can be controlled by the operator in remote mode from the remote. This opportunity is necessary in a number of situations, such as training, overcoming difficult obstacles, loading / unloading, etc. "
