It is mostly used to inspect the surroundings and transfer the information to the operator through teleoperation or make autonomous decisions to deal with situations involving several technical challenges. For instance, in January 2020, the U.S. Army awarded contracts for the development of robotic combat vehicles (RCV-M). It is an unmanned robotic teleoperation combat vehicle with an onboard 20-to 50-millimeter automatic cannon. It can fight alongside infantry and destroy enemy armored personnel carriers, trucks, and troops. Corner shot weapons are increasingly becoming popular due to the safety features they offer. A corner shot is a specialized weapon accessory, essentially a hinged chassis installed on a pistol such as a Glock, a handgun, or a Beretta 92. The hinge chassis allows the gun’s frame to bend around the corner and attack the target without exposing the soldiers. It is also equipped with a bore-sighted, high-resolution video camera, an LCD monitor, and a built-in tactical light for navigation and illumination. The corner shot rifles or guns are widely used in battlefields, inside armored vehicles and tanks, on a turret up top, which will allow for a full 360-degree field of cover while the triggerman remains safely inside the vehicle. The weapon is accurate and effective up to 100 to 200 meters, depending on the type of weapon.
