If you think UAVs are lousy and wimpy, take a glance at MAARS (modular advanced armed robotic system) developed from the North American company QinetiQ. This little rough bot aims at enemy forces and is the first fully modular ground robot system that's capable of measuring response in a given situation. non-lethal setting is broadcasting the voices of the operator(s) of the robot to the enemy. The second response is less-lethal with it deploying smoke, pepper spray, and other non-lethal chemicals. The last and most lethal in fact deadly, four grenade launchers and an automatic rifle. MAARS is also equipped with four on-board cameras to give the operator visuals and optics of the robots setting. However, only 3 have been deployed in Iraq, none of them have been allowed to shoot at any targets, but with modern military technology advancing these robots may just be our future soldiers on the battle field. Thanks for reading a what rolls do you think robots should have a part in the military? Just feel free to comment below with your answer!
