Abstract

A fully modular recon and support drone that can travel with and provide support to tank units and infantry divisions. The drone will be sent from its armored vehicle or infantry unit where it will be controlled by an operator. The image capture system will collect visual and LWIR thermal data which will be fed to a learning model to identify the target. If the operator is in a turreted vehicle, they can use the drone's laser range finder to help adjust turret rotation. The position of the target will be triangulated, and the turret will move accordingly.
