Project

Light ordnance detection by teleoperated unmanned system

The LOTUS PLUS system will search the ground with a metal detector, an infra-red camera, and a ground penetrating radar. The data will be analysed in real-time at up to a maximum search rate of 1 m/s (forward speed). As the vehicle moves forward the position of targets detected will be marked and the data stored to allow more extensive evaluation off-line between the real-time search and any subsequent mine clearance operation. The output for the LOTUS PLUS project is a demonstration of detection capability.
