It has four legs, eyes, and a body built to carry, with the ability to go wherever men can. 00:00:00

The Legged Squad Support System is the new solution for overburdened troops 00:00:08

who carry nearly 100 pounds of survival and protection gear in the field. 00:00:13

This amount of squads like to move under cover and concealment. 00:00:19

They do not want to move on roads. 00:00:22

That tells you right away that if you're going to have a robotic platform, 00:00:24

It must be able to go over logs, through streams." 00:00:27

The Commandant of the Marine Corps, General James Amos, and Defense Advanced Research 00:00:31

Projects Agency Director Arati Prabhakar saw a demonstration of the system at Joint Base 00:00:36

Meyer Henderson Hall, Virginia, and learned about the 24-month initiative designed to 00:00:43

refine and enhance the program. 00:00:49

Now that you've got a capable platform, it's now taking the sensors, making them 00:00:51

much more effective, they're already effective, but taking it to a new level so that not only 00:00:55

it can perceive the world around it better, but it can interact with the Marines better. 00:01:01

So that's what you're going to see over the next 24 months is how do you make it 00:01:05

more effective in the hands of those Marines out in the field. 00:01:10

Once complete, this beast of burden can take the load off troops, allowing them to focus 00:01:14

on their mission. 00:01:19

So everything we do, we endeavor to lighten the load, but where LS3 is particularly effective 00:01:21

in that regard is the fact that it takes equipment directly off that Marine's back, whether it 00:01:26

be mortar base plates, whether it be ammunition, spare ammunition, whether it be packs, a lot 00:01:32

of different areas. 00:01:39
