Textron Systems Unveils Ripsaw M5 Robotic Combat Vehicle

In October 2019, Textron Systems unveiled the Ripsaw M5 Robotic Combat Vehicle at the Association of the United States Army Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., demonstrating an unmanned ground vehicle with autonomous navigation, 360-degree situational awareness, and configurable mission payloads.

BWIBots: A Platform for Robots Operating in Human-Inhabited Buildings

In February 2017, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin's Building-Wide Intelligence project published a description of the BWIBots platform in the International Journal of Robotics Research, detailing mobile robots designed to operate autonomously in office buildings, accept natural-language commands, and learn cooperative tasks through human interaction.

Neurorobotics Platform, Human Brain Project

In 2015, the Human Brain Project, a European Commission Flagship Initiative, released its Neurorobotics Platform, a simulation environment allowing researchers to connect large-scale brain models to virtual robot bodies and run closed-loop cognitive experiments without physical hardware.

Zoe: Autonomous Astrobiology Field Robot for the Atacama Desert

In 2004, a team from Carnegie Mellon University's Field Robotics Center, NASA Ames Research Center, and the University of Tennessee deployed the Zoe rover autonomously across Chile's Atacama Desert, demonstrating robotic detection of subsurface biological life with relevance to astrobiology and future Mars exploration.

Autographer: Autonomous Robot Photographer Deployed at AAAI/IAAI 2003

In 2003, Selene Mota and Rosalind Picard at the MIT Media Lab deployed an autonomous mobile robot called Autographer at IAAI 2003. Over five days it navigated a conference environment, interacted with roughly 5,000 people, and captured more than 3,000 photographs, 35% of which recipients requested by email.

iRobot PackBot Deployed at World Trade Center Disaster Site

In September 2001, iRobot Corporation deployed PackBot ground robots to search the rubble of the World Trade Center following the 11 September attacks, representing one of the first operational uses of an autonomous mobile robot in a disaster-response mission.

RBSE: NASA's Repository-Based Software Engineering Web Spider

In 1994, researchers at NASA's Software Engineering Laboratory at Goddard Space Flight Center presented the RBSE spider, an automated web crawler built in C with Oracle and WAIS back-ends, designed to index and analyse software repositories on the World Wide Web for reuse research.
