The United States Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command (MARSOC) is currently assessing robot dogs fitted with artificial intelligence-targeting guns. The “robodogs” are developed by Ghost Robotics, with a view to a potential future deployment on the battlefield, equipped with advanced gun systems from defense tech specialists Onyx Industries. It has entered into a partnership with AimLock to concentrate on the inclusion of remote lethal tools into autonomous systems in the air, on the ground, and at sea. MARSOC is using Ghost Robotics machines known as quadrupedal unmanned ground vehicles (Q-UGVs for short) for different purposes, including espionage and surveillance, but when it comes to direct combat more attention is garnered. On the Q-UGV, an imaging system informs the human operator of any potential threats thanks to an AI-powered defense which can detect and monitor humans as well as vehicles or drones.
