The US Army Wants Distributed Bot Swarms And An 'Internet of Battlefield Things'
turkeydance shares a new report about the U.S. Army Research Lab:In the coming months, the Lab will fund new programs related to highly (but not fully) autonomous drones and robots that can withstand adversary electronic warfare operations... A second program called the Internet of Battlefield Things seeks to put to military use "the research that's going on in the commercial space" on distributed sensors and Internet-connected devices... One thrust will be equipping drones and other autonomous systems with bigger brains and better networking so that they can function even when an enemy jams their ability to radio back to a human controller for direction... "When you don't have bandwidth, when you're under cyber attack, when you're being jammed. That's the problem we're trying to address." The lab's director also says they want "as much processing as possible on the node" so it can continue functioning in "contested environments."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
