New robotic targets used at shooting ranges
Currently most military shooting ranges use pop-up targets for soldiers to practice using their weapons. Later on in the future, this may change. We can already see some new target technology being developed and used today. Take Dynamic Robotics wheeled robots for example. They can be remote controlled around the range, and simulate moving hostile enemies. When it's not being controlled via remote control, it's executing a program that marks a path for it to follow. All these new methods make the shooting range a more realistic and better practicing environment for the soldiers. Thanks for reading and check out the video above to see the robot in the line of fire!
