    Crusher: Autonomous War Wagon

    Like a giant, autonomous Half-Life crate, the Crusher—and its little sister Spinner—is a rolling, intelligent battlefield delivery system. For example, the Crusher aka the UGCV PerceptOR Integrated (UPI) can wander along with a platoon and dispense rocket launchers like dangerous Pez.

    It can also right itself and carry its own payload and complete its own missions. It also collects and uses terrain data for mapping environments and keeping itself on track.
