On The Lookout: The Air Mobile Ground Security and Surveillance System (AMGSS) Has Arrived

Abstract

The Air Mobile Ground Security and Surveillance (AMGSSS) project has the objective of developing a system that can rapidly position remotely operated ground sensors at locations of operational interest and provide information obtained by those sensors back to the operator. AMGSSS exploits the capabilities of small, remotely operated, vertical-take-off-and-landing (VTOL) ducted fan aircraft to provide mobility to the sensor payload. These platforms can be operated effectively over the low-bandwidth tactical radio data-links required by military users.
