Robotics Rodeo: 2010
The Robotics Rodeo is an opportunity for scientists and engineers from government and industry to demonstrate new and innovative unmanned ground systems to the U.S. Army user and research and development communities. The opportunity for industry members to interact with experienced Soldiers and demonstrate their technologies to these end-users has proven to be incredibly valuable.
The Robotics Rodeo is not a competition or sole source justification but, rather, a market research event to see whether new technologies could potentially benefit Army robotics programs. Soldiers see the new technologies, ask questions and provide honest feedback to the industry representatives.
This event has two opportunities for demonstration: the Extravaganza and the Robotic Technology Observation, Demonstration and Discussion (RTOD2). Registration to the Extravaganza is open to the public, and registration is required prior to the event. RTOD2 is closed to the public, and vendors will be required to submit an application to participate. If the application is accepted, the vendor will be invited to demonstrate at RTOD2 and the Extravaganza
