The US Army is using more and more autonomous vehicles to perform dangerous missions.

A Russian company has declared that they are modifying one of their ground robots to be able to target M1 Abrams and Leopard tanks, which are being sent to Ukraine by the United States, Germany, Poland, and other countries.

Boston Dynamics is upping its game in the robotics industry by announcing that it will deploy a robot to Ukraine to help mine clearing operations.

The Russian firepower gained momentum in the five-month-long war, making them dominate most of Ukraine’s key and strategically important territories. But one thing that could grab their force without human effort – is a robot.

While we usually hear about ballistic, hypersonic, and all kinds of missiles, the US also explored using a giant, man-operated robot called Beetle.

When an injury halted SFC Verdialez’s training regimen he built himself a robotic sparring partner that hits back. Now you can fight it too.

American war fighters have the best equipment in the world, but the advanced technology at the disposal of U.S. infantrymen comes at a steep price: a whole lot of weight. The average war fighter today can expect to carry somewhere between 60 and 120 pounds of gear on their back while in combat zones. All […]

For all its faults, YouTube has created an entire ecosystem of content creators that might have otherwise gone unnoticed (or been relegated to a few lines in movie credits), and you’d be hard pressed to find a better example than the Corridor Crew. With two hugely successful channels under their belt and billions of views […]

Despite a steady diet of movies and television shows depicting robots as extremely capable killing machines bent on taking over the planet in recent decades, real robots have long been a bit… clunky. The incredibly complex mechanics of maintaining one’s balance with a walking stride, for instance, comes easily to human beings that benefit from […]

The Navy’s secretive sub-hunting ghost ship, technically known as the Medium Displacement Unmanned Surface Vessel, Sea Hunter, recently found its way into the record books as the first unmanned vessel to successfully traverse the open ocean between San Diego, California and Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. At 132-feet long and boasting a displacement of 140 tons, the […]

The X-47B may never actually participate in combat operations, but the two technology demonstrators built by Northrop Grumman for the U.S. Navy produced some of the most interesting (and unusual looking) military aviation photos of the past ten years. The unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) is, put simply, a drone developed with low observability and […]

The Putin Youth Forum in the city of Yaroslavl, Russia was meant to garner headlines this week by showing off the most advanced robotics Russia had to offer, and for a minute there, it really seemed like what Russia had to offer was something incredible. As the humanoid-shaped robot named “Boris” took to the stage, […]
