Humanoid for Combat or Humanoid Autonomous System
The challenge is to indigenously design, develop and prototype a combat capable humanoid robot with high dexterity, stability and autonomy that can operate alongside or ahead of soldiers in hostile environments. The humanoid platform must be capable of human-like mobility, terrain negotiation, load handling and tactical task execution while being software upgradable and modular. The system should reduce direct soldier exposure to risk in combat, counter-insurgency and hazardous missions, while remaining adaptable for future operational requirements. Development will be stage wise, enabling progressive capability enhancement leading to a fully deployable combat humanoid system.
