A Robot Sniper Helicopter which is known as Autonomous Rotorcraft Sniper System or ARSS, is being tested by the military… Not just any ordinary Machine.. It’s controlled by a modified Xbox 360 Controller!
Yep, it’s a one of a kind machine, and probably will be used in the near future.. The user is in a “Point-and-Shoot” Situation using this machine. “Stopping the pirates of Somalia hasn’t been easy” – Wired.com
It is being developed in hopes to provide an easier way to deal with low-class criminal Activities, such as piracy & hostage situations. The shooter is supported by an “auto-correct” software and is a stabilized turret. The ammo is inexpensive it fires .388 millimeter rounds that cost $4 each.
It’s a very intriguing experiment, I’m sure you are just as interested in getting more information as I am!
