The Demo III experimental unmanned ground vehicle program is directed at developing autonomous mobility technology, integrating it onto a number of small, agile testbed vehicles and evaluating its maturity through a series of experiments conducted with the military user community. Efforts were centered on developing a multi-mode perception capability based upon both passive and active sensor systems that included stereo vision, a multi-line laser scanner and imaging radar, implementation of the 4-D/RCS computer architecture, and a user-friendly operator interface incorporating advanced mission planning tools. The technology was evaluated in 1999 by the troops from the Armor Center during a Battle Lab Warfighting Experiment at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD conducted by the Mounted Maneuver Battle Laboratory. A major technology thrust will be the introduction of object classification capabilities into the autonomous mobility perception suite, which is essential for future efforts directed at the development of tactical behaviors.
