Autonomous Trucks
14 August 2023SCIENCE WEEKThis is the first in a two-part series on the work of Army's Robotic and Autonomous Systems Implementation & Coordination Office. These range from artificial intelligence, robotic and autonomous systems, and power and energy, to quantum technologies. RICO Director Colonel Robin Smith said his organisation helps Army stay ahead of the game so soldiers, and Australia, aren’t exposed to a more capable adversary. “With the rate of innovation that’s going on across the world, we need to understand both how to use and protect against these technologies,” Colonel Smith said. One skill set, quantum technology, is about exploiting the fundamental laws of nature, reality at its smallest scale.
