- Modular Advanced Armed Robotic System
-
The Modular Advanced Armed Robotic System (MAARS) is a robot that is being developed by Qinetiq. A member of the TALON family, it will be the successor to the armed SWORDS robot. It has a different, larger chassis than the SWORDS robot, so has little physically in common with the SWORDS and TALON robots.
The MAARS platform can be fitted with lethal weapons, non-lethal fired devices (such as bean bags, pepper spray, and other crowd control devices), and unarmed manipulator arms and sensors.[1]
