Common Robotic Systems
Abstract
The Common Robotic System - Individual (CRS(I)) is the Army's small sized (<25 lbs.) Soldier back-packable, remotely operated, common robotic system. The system provides dismounted Soldiers with increased standoff capability from hazardous threats. The system consists of a Universal Robotic Controller (URC), a suite of various payloads, and an open architecture common mobility platform allowing for future capability growth. The CRS(I) will allow the operator to quickly re-configure for other various missions by adding or removing modules and/or payloads. The CRS(I) will provide interrogation, detection, confirmation, and neutralization capabilities employed to support a wide spectrum of mobility missions for current and future forces. This capability provides commanders the ability to persistently monitor the Operating Environment (OE) while protecting and sustaining the force. The CRS(I) complements the Joint Integrated War-fighting Force by providing standoff to the Warfighter during major combat, stability, and homeland security operations. FY 2020 RDTE funding in the amount of $7.796 million will complete execution of Production Qualification Test (PQT) activities in accordance with approved Test and Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP). This funding will also fund design updates from test, software updates, Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), payload development, the development and verification of Operator Technical Manuals (TM), LOG Demo, development of training packages, execution of a Limited User Test (LUT) to support Conditional Materiel Release in 2QFY20, potential delta follow-on testing on unmet CDD thresholds, begin development of Maintainer Technical Manuals and other LOG products needed for Full Materiel Release (FMR) in 4QFY21. This funding also supports programmatic risk mitigation activities including, but not limited to: Cyber Security Controls (i.e. Risk Management Framework), commonality directives, payloads, sensors, condition based maintenance, electronics, standard interfaces and architectures, autonomous operations, and other emerging technologies, interoperability (IOP), and analysis of collaborative operations with various Unmanned Systems assigned at Battalion and below in addition to any program management support costs associated with these activities.
