Textron Defense Systems' Unattended Ground
Sensors (UGS) is a core Future Combat Systems (FCS)
program that uses advanced communications and technologies
to link soldiers with both manned and unmanned platforms
and sensors. This system of sensors is capable of detecting,
classifying, locating, and tracking vehicles, personnel,
and aircraft in both rural and urban environments
For urban initiatives, Urban-Unattended
Ground Sensors (U-UGS) can be used as a surveillance
tool during the clearing operations of buildings, caves,
sewers, tunnels, and other confined spaces. Textron Defense Systems, in collaboration with Honeywell, designed these
wireless, hand emplaced system of sensors to be lightweight
and low cost. The U-UGS network will capture field-of-view
images of intruders in all light conditions and transmit
images to the FCS Network where immediate recognition
of human intruders can be achieved.
