2. Growing Technology in the Mountain State ©2006 West Virginia High Technology Consortium Foundation BACKGROUND Cooperative Agreement Number: 2006-MU-MU-K006 Foundation Proposal # WVHTCF-06-0004 Develop a modular/reconfigurable vehicle to support first responders – non traditional users Primary mission Recon/Surveillance – eyes on target quickly T&E with selected units feed back to NIJ Final Report NIJ Program Managers – Mr. Chris Tillery and Ms. Cathy Girouard

3. Growing Technology in the Mountain State ©2006 West Virginia High Technology Consortium Foundation PROGRAM OBJECTIVES Develop a modular, light weight system for first responders – to be complimentary with current robots Single chassis with interchangeable top plates supporting various missions Modify EOD BomBot military IED/UXO counter-charge delivery system Plug and play flexibility Primary mission recon/surveillance Training and User feedback UHF digital radio on two units

5. Basic Expendable System - EOD EOD BomBot –Government Design Developed by AFRL Robotics Group –Kit configuration 6 vehicles, 2 OCUs with spares kit –Detect and neutralize IED/UXOs - expendable with no logistics trail –Initial order for 309 kits with 483 spare vehicles –Additional USMC EOD for 29 kits –Government Program of Record –Issues sloppy suspension, poor video performance, 30 minute mission duration, OCU on tray easy to lose parts –Good idea no program flexibility for changes

6. Basic Expendable System BomBot EOD BomBot EOD Controller

7. Special Operations SOFBot (UXO RCV –XM2) –Robotics R&D group modification for SOF customer funded by EOD/LIC for 14 kits –Kit configuration 6 vehicles with 2 OCUs –Primary use to detect and detonate IED/UXOs, again expendable with no logistics trail –Design Differences military batteries – run time of over 2 hours New video transmitter/receiver – range of 1200 feet LOS drive train modifications; suspension locked in place, differentials, metal drive shafts and new transmission –Requirement generated by USASOC

8. SOF UXO RCV BomBot XM2 Vehicle BomBot XM2 Controller

9. XBot for NIJ Program 12 prototypes with improvements OCU in pelican case New clutch assembly, metal drive shafts and chassis, 24 volt Maxxon motor, better steering, various configurations – EOD, Monitor, Enforcer and Search and Rescue Two with WEUF radio systems and navigation module New software allows hot swap of top plates EOD - dump basket for delivering counter charge Enforcer – Pepper Ball gun – riot/crowd control Monitor – Scissors lift – recon/surveillance S&R – low profile for under vehicle inspection and tight spaces On GSA Schedule #
