A Modular, Lightweight,<br />
Wearable <strong>Controller</strong> for UAS,<br />
USVs, UGVs, UUVs<br />
and Sensor Networks
ONE CONTROLLER, INFINITE POSSIBILITIES<br />
<strong>Tactical</strong> <strong>Robotic</strong> <strong>Controller</strong> (<strong>TRC</strong>)<br />
A rugged, lightweight, portable controller that can command<br />
a wide variety of UAS, USVs, UGVs, UUVs and UGSs. The <strong>TRC</strong><br />
is a force multiplier that can be quickly transformed from a<br />
wearable system to a vehicle-mounted system in seconds.<br />
<strong>TRC</strong> Advantages:<br />
• Simple Design: processor core module, hand controller<br />
module, radio communications module<br />
• Modular: easily adaptable to meet varying customers’<br />
missions and needs<br />
• Lightweight: 50-60 percent lighter than other<br />
controllers on the market<br />
• Easily Configurable: permits rapid integration of<br />
varying industry control software architectures for a<br />
wide range of unmanned systems<br />
• Increases Situational Awareness: provides the small<br />
unit leader with information from multiple sensors while<br />
enabling horizontal sharing of data across the unit<br />

Core Module<br />
Why use <strong>TRC</strong><br />
• Battle proven, powerful and rugged<br />
• Lightweight and small<br />
• Versatile and interoperable with<br />
other unmanned industry systems<br />
• Direct replacement for wide range<br />
of existing controllers<br />
Hand <strong>Controller</strong> Module<br />
Rapid Control<br />
The operator simply attaches a radio<br />
communications module to the <strong>TRC</strong>,<br />
launches the appropriate software<br />
application and begins controlling<br />
the asset.<br />
Combat Proven<br />
<strong>TRC</strong>s are in combat today with the<br />
U.S. Army, controlling the Minotaur and<br />
Armadillo robotic mine roller systems.<br />
