MDE-SV
Military Utilization
The
MDE-SV Surveillance Vehicle is electric powered and therefore
has an essentially zero sound signature. This feature allows
the vehicle to approach and surprise enemy emplacements without
audible detection like no other UGV in the military arsenal.
Under cover of darkness, GPS guided and with IR visual penetration
the SV can laser-range find or laser-designate an enemy object
without discovery.
In another configuration, the SV Elevation Surveillance Arm
(SEA) is replaced with either a tactical rocket launch pod or
M60 machine gun mount that can optically IR target and fire
at enemy threats. These armament features reduce exposure of
ground troops to enemy fire.
The SV is teleoperated and has autonomous control utilizing
subcontractor Omnitech Robotics Intn'l LLC STS or SRS teleportation
system. This system utilizes Omnitech COMPASS (Compact Outdoor
Multipurpose Pose Assessment System) Integrating GPS, LNS (Land
Navigation System) and INS (Inertial Navigation System) to provide
highly accurate vehicle positioning orientation, extremely critical
in a combat zone.
