Ghost Robotics has partnered with Sword Defense Systems to develop a sniper rifle-equipped Vision 60 robot. At 17-pounds, it comes equipped with a Teledyne FLIR Boson thermal camera boasting 30X optical zoom perfect for stealthy missions, and a Special Purpose Unmanned Rifle (SPUR) that fires 6.5 mm Creedmoor rounds or 7.62 x 51 mm NATO rounds from a 10-round magazine.
The Ghost Robotics Vision 60 Q-UGV comes equipped with a system that ensures it keeps functioning even if its sensors are destroyed. That’s right, when the Vision 60 moves around and gets shoved, these forces are computed at 2,000 calculations per second per leg. They are designed in a way that ensures they can continue functioning even if the sensors they use to help them move stop functioning.
The SWORD Defense Systems Special Purpose Unmanned Rifle (SPUR) was specifically designed to offer precision fire from unmanned platforms such as the Ghost Robotics Vision-60 quadruped,” said SWORD International.
