00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,990
You know , the United 

2
00:00:03,990 --> 00:00:06,410
States Army , european command asked us 

3
00:00:06,410 --> 00:00:08,700
to bring some robots to the theater in 

4
00:00:08,700 --> 00:00:11,100
order to allow the soldiers to utilize 

5
00:00:11,110 --> 00:00:13,540
them during the joint multinational 

6
00:00:13,540 --> 00:00:16,660
Readiness Center in rotation to find 

7
00:00:16,660 --> 00:00:18,870
out if we're on the right path for 

8
00:00:18,870 --> 00:00:21,092
developing the technology and behaviors 

9
00:00:21,092 --> 00:00:24,680
for the robotic platforms . You know , 

10
00:00:24,690 --> 00:00:26,746
technology is not slowing down so we 

11
00:00:26,746 --> 00:00:28,746
have to make sure that we're at the 

12
00:00:28,746 --> 00:00:30,468
cutting edge of it and rapidly 

13
00:00:30,468 --> 00:00:34,390
producing stuff . Be able to be 

14
00:00:34,390 --> 00:00:36,334
out here and get their feedback is 

15
00:00:36,334 --> 00:00:38,334
truly valuable to our development , 

16
00:00:38,334 --> 00:00:40,557
understanding how the systems are going 

17
00:00:40,557 --> 00:00:42,390
to be employed in the field . So 

18
00:00:42,390 --> 00:00:44,557
they're not just given to the soldiers 

19
00:00:44,557 --> 00:00:46,779
and left behind or forgotten about . We 

20
00:00:46,779 --> 00:00:48,723
want soldiers to actually use this 

21
00:00:48,723 --> 00:00:51,120
hands on . Getting their feedback in 

22
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,410
real time is very special for us . Our 

23
00:00:54,410 --> 00:00:56,521
main goal is to increase the standoff 

24
00:00:56,521 --> 00:00:58,470
between soldiers and the front lines .
