Abstract

As robots are more and more leaving the protected lab environment, they are also more and more used for civil security and military use cases. Very often, these civil and military robotics development projects share large similarities and there is a substantial potential for dual use. In this paper, we will present and study three practical European projects where security field robots are being developed. The AIDED project focuses on the development of demining robots, whereas within the iMUGS project, a resupply scenario is considered. Finally, the CUGS project builds on the iMUGS developments and explores more in detail the reconnaissance use case.
