From page 24...
... These technologies have tremendous potential to reduce hazards, increase individual effectiveness, reduce costs, and provide needed high-technology improvements in military and logistic operations. The establishment of AI and robotics technology base groups and the compilation of a master plan by TRADOC may reflect progress toward solving this problem.
From page 25...
... These tasks could include loading, unloading, and packaging. Mounting existing programmable robots on vehicles such as trucks, Jeeps, or wheeled platforms would provide means of performing repetitive tasks with minimum training required if existing hand-held interface boxes that offer straining by doing" were used.
From page 26...
... The potential combination of deflection-c.ompensating robot arms and automatic attitude stabilization in rough terrain could significantly advance TMAP application.
From page 27...
... 27 7. Initiate a short study to determine the potential utility of equipping an existing Army truck or other vehicle with a commercially available, programmable robot for loading/unloading operations at depots or in the f told .
