The first technological solutions of the Army of Robots should be inexpensive and perform the most dangerous tasks on the front instead of soldiers.
Our main goal is to preserve life. A person should not take risks where a machine can do the job.
In the first stage it will not be a classic humanoid, but a simpler humanoid-like robot that can be produced and scaled quickly.
It should perform some of an infantryman's tasks directly on the battlefield.
Today such platforms cost on average $40–70 thousand. For mass use in war we need them to be much cheaper — a target of $10–20 thousand per unit. The potential requirement is tens of thousands of such machines.
We are already looking at teams with ready MVPs and designing solutions. Next — prototypes, simulations, model training, and finding the right combination of hardware and software.
The Army of Robots is not a single product. We are building an ecosystem that will bring together companies, startups, engineers, R&D, and capital around robotization of the front. Our task is to move as quickly as possible from prototype to mass product.
