The Army Warfighting Assessment is conducting an assessment of a self-driving system called the Leader Follower. The leader vehicle is manned by two Soldiers and the follow vehicles use robotics and sensors to follow the lead vehicle’s path.
Self-Driving Leader Follower is a technology developed and demonstrated under the AMAS Program is aimed at transition to programs for retrofitting existing logistics trucks and for introduction into new production logistics trucks. AMAS technology is also being propagated into the Autonomous Ground Resupply program, which will extend AMAS into fully autonomous operation.
Finally, AMAS technology is the foundation for products in development by Lockheed Martin aimed at autonomous vehicles for industrial and commercial operations.
Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control is the prime contractor and prime integrator for the AMAS effort.
The United States Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) is the acquiring agency and technical manager.
The KAIROS system allows Soldiers to operate vehicles from a remote location with an easy to setup robotic driving device (RIRAK).
Kairos Autonomi thinks differently about autonomy. Rather than build expensive, purpose-built systems, Kairos Autonomi produces high-quality, cost-effective solutions that can be retrofitted or "strapped-on" to any existing vehicle or vessel that has a steering wheel. Effectively create a fleet of optionally unmanned, tele-operation or semi-autonomous ground vehicles to handle a host of operations.
Operating the KAIROS System: Soldiers get a chance to assess new equipment during Army Warfighting Assessment 17.1 at El Paso, TX.
