A remotely controlled F6A robot maneuvering through a scenario during the inaugural Eastern Robotics Rodeo & Capability Exercise in Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 29 - Sept. 1, 2016. The event is competition where military, federal and local EOD units maneuver remotely controlled, hazardous-duty robotic platforms to dismantle inert explosive devices in real-world scenarios. The exercise also provides an opportunity for participants to network with their counterparts and exchange best practices. This year’s robot rodeo is the first of its kind in the Eastern United States and was made possible by the partnership of the Air Force Civil Engineer Center, Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office - Technical Support Working Group and the United Kingdom Defense Science and Technology Laboratory.
