Motiv in the WSJ: The Pentagon Wants Autonomous Vehicles

(Pasadena, California – April 5, 2021)

Motiv’s Vice President of Business Development, Tom McCarthy, was quoted in a recent Wall Street Journal article that discussed the Pentagon’s drive for autonomous vehicles.

 

Pentagon programs are currently developing autonomous aerial fuel tanker deliveries, pilotless jet fighters, a crewless navy fleet, and AI-driven spy planes.

 

All of these autonomous vehicles demand various levels of complex, automated robotics.

 

From the article:

Military leaders ā€œhave been leading the charge for automation as part of a multipronged approach,ā€ said Tom McCarthy, an automation and robotic expert who is vice president of business development at closely held Motiv Systems Inc., which built the arm on the latest Mars lander. ā€œThey want systems that play well together,ā€ he said.
