The GARA (Ground Area Reconnaissance and Assurance) project seeks to fill the Army's urgent need to deal with mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs) at pace. This requires new systems and the development of new tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs). The GARA vision is of a number of sensors and effectors, deployed on autonomous small uncrewed ground and air vehicles (UxV), supported by enablers such as data fusion and machine learning. Such a solution generates the required pace and mass, and reduces per...
