Т-72А на пульте управления: российские военные тестируют FPV-танки

The combat vehicle receives commands at a great distance from the operator

In Russia, radio-controlled modeling technologies are actively developing, which were initially used in FPV drones (First person view), and are now being scaled to heavy military equipment. In particular, Russian military personnel have begun testing the T-72A FPV tank.

The T-72A was equipped for remote control. Using a monitor or virtual reality glasses, the operator sees the image from the combat vehicle's camera in real time, while being at a safe distance.

Various military equipment can be adapted for remote control. An onboard sensor and a battery powering it must be installed on the FPV carrier. The minimum set also includes a camera, a control signal receiver, and controls.

Earlier, NovSU developed a technical vision system, which, based on lidar and stereoscopic vision, helps equipment recognize various objects and navigate the terrain.
