The system, called TagView (Trusted Autonomous Ground Vehicles in Electronic Warfare - reliable autonomous land vehicles in the electronic war) will allow several UGV to perform tasks, simultaneously identifying threats and evading them. TagView is easily integrated with autonomous vehicles control systems, and therefore compatible with different UGV models. It is equipped with optical cameras, Lidar sensors to detect light sources and determine distance, navigation and route planning.
The system has already been tested on several M113 infantry fighting vehicles. Lieutenant Colonel Australian Army Rachel Ayub emphasized the importance of improving the autonomous capabilities of military equipment, as it will help to save the lives of soldiers. She also noted that SI systems still need control because they are not perfect and can, in some cases, cause harm that can be avoided.
The TagView program was cooperated with the University of Melbourne and the Australian Institute of Machine Training (AIML) of Adelaide University. Professor Jan Reed from Adelaide University emphasized the role of computer vision and machine learning, with the help of which M113 became completely autonomous and did not require the presence of crew, because the machines were controlled remotely.
