Talon® Modular Robot Platforms
Talon® Robots are powerful, durable, man portable tracked vehicles that are widely used for applications such as explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), reconnaissance, sensing, communications, security, defence and rescue. Talon® has all-weather, day/night capabilities and can be remotely operated in virtually any terrain.
How are they different from other robots on the market?
- Man-Portable – At 125 lb (57 kg), TALON® can be easily transported and is instantly ready for operation.
- Rugged – TALON® robots can take a punch and stay in the fight.One was blown off the roof of a Humvee in Iraq while the Humvee was crossing a bridge over a river. It flew off the bridge and plunged into the river below. Soldiers later used its heavily damaged operator control unit (OCU) to drive it back out of the river.
- Fast – TALON® is the fastest robot on the market today, easily keeping pace with a running soldier.
- High Payload Capacity – Long-term system versatility optimizes investment. TALON® has the highest payload capacity and payload-to-weight ratio, allowing for the incorporation of a broad array of sensor packages.
- Mobile – Climbs stairs, negotiates rock piles, overcomes concertina wire, ploughs through snow.
- Intuitive – Easiest robot to operate; joystick operator controls; quad screen display.
- Outstanding Situational Awareness – Can hold up to seven colour cameras, including night vision and zoom options.
- Withstands Repeated Decontamination – Demonstrated at Ground Zero after 2001 World Trade Center attack. Electronics withstood 45 straight days of being decontaminated twice a day without failing.
- Long Battery Life – TALON® robots have the longest battery life of all man-portable robots.
- Best Service History – Easy to maintain and sustain; best spare parts, service and repair history in Iraq.
