Scientists and engineers discuss how to shape the U.S. Army of the future
Army researchers are exploring the development of versatile fuels for the future. U.S. Army CCDC Army Research Laboratory Director Dr. Philip Perconti talks with mechanical engineer Dr. Constandinos Mitsingas. Will we someday have transportation that runs off anything -- like Mr. Fusion from Back to the Future?
In the future, Soldiers and autonomous vehicles will use tricorder-like sensors to measure electromagnetic fields. That might be valuable information for navigation in a GPS-denied environment. That's the kind of cutting edge research the Army is pursuing. U.S. Army CCDC Army Research Laboratory Director Dr. Philip Perconti talks with research physicist Dr. Kevin Claytor about this intriguing potential technology!
Robotics has the potential to move Soldiers out of harm's way. How will the future Army use robots to accomplish complex missions and ensure dominant strategic land power? CCDC Army Research Laboratory Director Dr. Phil Perconti talks with roboticist Phil Osteen about the current state of research.
