Feature: World's First Weaponized Robot Gives Soldiers Unique View of Battlefield (with Video)
Foster-Miller's TALON is touted as the world's first weaponized robot. It's based on the SWORDS (Special Weapons Observation Reconnaissance Detection System) system, which enables soldiers to fire small arms weapons from up to 1000-meters away. This device can be equipped with a number of weapons, including the M16 rifle, M82 Barrett rifle, and a 40mm grenade launcher. Video after the break. Click here for more pictures.
