iRobot Stingray Project

iRobot is busy working on a new project called Stingray.

Essentially they are looking to create a faster UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) for operations other than bomb disposal.  They are taking a Warrior x700 and modifying it.

They hope to get the robot to reach a top speed of 32 KPH.  iRobot also is aiming to create an an immersive telepresence experience for the operator and semiautonomous driver-assist behaviors.
