ArmBot. General Description.
[Category : - DESIGN PATENTS]
[Viewed 83 times]
ArmBots autonomously maintain communication with each other and with an automated battlefield control center. A unit of ArmBots is supported by drones. The drones' tasks include enemy surveillance, target designation, selection of appropriate weaponry, monitoring changes in the combat situation, and coordinating the actions of each ArmBot and drone via their own local neural network, artificial intelligence, and the control center.
Automated Battlefield Control Centers (ABCC) receive, process, and transmit information in the form of ready-made decisions for each automated combat unit. ABCCs can exchange information with each other in online or offline modes.
Personnel are assigned two primary roles:
One unit is responsible for technical support and ensuring the functionality of the artificial intelligence of the automated combat units.
Another unit acts as a second echelon, supporting the automated combat units with all existing types of weaponry for engaging enemy personnel and technical assets.
The assigned drones, in addition to collecting, processing, and transmitting information, can be armed to provide aerial fire support, similar to Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAVs).
This combat model places significant emphasis on the ArmBots themselves. Their design must incorporate the most advanced existing technologies in the field of unmanned ground vehicle control, including artificial intelligence, neural networks, supercomputers, and high-speed data transmission systems for handling large information volumes.
A group of ArmBots and their assigned drones must be equipped with means to detect enemy personnel in shelters and camouflaged positions under any weather conditions, accounting for precipitation, temperature, wind direction and speed, time of day, etc.
The armament of the ArmBots must be comprehensive, capable of engaging both offensive and defensive enemy equipment, as well as enemy personnel. Furthermore, due to the absence of a crew, the ArmBot can be a low-profile, compact, and versatile technical combat asset.
Unmanned ArmBots and drones constantly exchange information and move as a single unit. However, they can deviate within the general trajectory to avoid obstacles such as ditches, ravines, craters, boulders, or anti-tank hedgehogs. Such a group of ArmBots and drones can rapidly and effectively solve various tasks across large territories with diverse landscapes (mountainous, forested, rough terrain...).
ArmBots and drones utilize visual-inertial odometry (VIO), meaning they use data from cameras and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) containing accelerometers and gyroscopes. Additionally, they construct a real-time 3D map of the terrain. Since the group consists of multiple ArmBots and drones not using GPS, errors can accumulate in their navigational data, potentially leading to confusion and collisions. To accomplish their mission, each ArmBot is equipped with UWB (Ultra-Wideband) transceivers, providing each unit with relatively accurate data on their mutual positioning.
The armament of ArmBots must be compact and self-guided, using data from their own sensors as well as external target designators. For engaging ground fortifications and enemy armored vehicles, recoilless artillery systems such as anti-tank guided missile systems (ATGMs) are used. For neutralizing personnel, flamethrowers, high-precision small arms, etc., are employed.
The ArmBot is based on a multi-wheel chassis with independent suspension and independent drive (hub motor). The wheels are equipped with solid tires with an appropriate tread profile. Wheel suspension is torsion-based. The loss of one or several wheels should not significantly impact the mobility of the ArmBot. The frontal armor, as in conventional tanks, is thicker. Since exposing the side armor to enemy fire is undesirable, the chassis design must allow for lateral movement without rotating the entire vehicle's hull. The independent drive for each wheel enables this capability. A tracked chassis is entirely unacceptable for the ArmBot's design.
The power plant is a diesel generator of appropriate power.
