Abstract :
In the present paper the authors tried to explore how a radio frequency controlled robot can be used in defense and in real war field. The military robot will be able to substitute the real human soldier in the battle field. The authors have tried to explore how a military robot will function. The military robot has a two barrel gun turret through which bullets can be fired. It has two cameras in synchronization with the turret which can rotate up and down, left and right up to a safe firing limit. Both the gun turret and the cameras are enclosed within a hemispherical shell which serves as a shield and assists and enables their motion. The robot vehicle can move like a tank, turning to any angle on its axis, moving forward and reverse turning left and right, running instantly into reverse direction using the same steering mechanism as present in tanks. The robot is radio operated, self powered, has back tracking facility, in case of loss of connection from the base station. A pair of guns has been installed on it, so that it can fire on enemies remotely when required. To aim the guns and view the road and the surroundings in which the robot is traveling, wireless cameras are installed on different sides of the robot for different vantage points. Wireless cameras will send back real time video and audio inputs which can be seen on a remote monitor in the base station from where the robot is being controlled and action can be taken accordingly. The robot can be controlled from a base station by means of radio frequency. It also has the ability to re-establish contact with the base station in case of a signal failure by retracing its path back for some distance. It can silently enter into an enemy area and send us all the information through its camera eyes. It is designed for fighting, reconnaissance as well as suicide attacks under certain circumstances.
