Guardium

Guardium is an Israeli unmanned ground vehicle developed by G-NIUS and jointly by Israel Aerospace Industries and Elbit, and used by the Israel Defense Forces along the border with the Gaza Strip. It can be teleoperated from a mobile command station, where the computers carry built-in maps, or it can drive itself along pre-programmed routes. Its sensors include infrared cameras, radar, high-sensitivity microphones and a main camera that rotates through 360 degrees. The vehicle is 2.95 metres long, 1.8 metres wide and 2.2 metres high, weighs about 1.4 tonnes, carries enough armour to withstand light fire and can reach 80 km/h. It can carry lethal and non-lethal weapons for protection, although its main purpose is surveillance. The joint programme was ended in April 2016, but the vehicle has stayed in service with the Israeli forces.
