Overview

Oshkosh Defense developed TerraMax, a modular unmanned ground vehicle technology kit that integrates autonomy into existing tactical wheeled military vehicles for convoy and route clearance operations without requiring purpose-built vehicle platforms. A single operator can supervise up to five TerraMax-equipped vehicles simultaneously, and the system uses a sensor suite comprising lidar, HD cameras, short-wave infrared cameras, situational-awareness cameras, and radar arrays. The TerraMax system has been evaluated by the US Marine Corps and demonstrated at multiple international defense exhibitions.
