General Robotics Overview

General Robotics develops and manufactures advanced robotics platforms for the defense and homeland security markets. The company's advanced remote-controlled weapon station systems are light enough to be easily installed on almost any manned or unmanned platform at land or at sea without influencing operational capabilities. Human operators can operate the system from both within a protected vehicle or from a remote location for maximum protection and operational continuity. The systems provide enhanced situational awareness and lethality by means of the company's point-and-shoot technology, enabling the operator to take highly informed decisions while minimizing collateral damage. General Robotics provides fully integrated, end-to-end border security solutions that leverage technological securities. Its offerings include abnormality-detecting sensors; vision systems to analyze and track suspicious targets; manned or unmanned platforms to engage ground, air, and naval threats; and a central command center to manage the region effectively. The solutions are operational and can be customized for diverse border requirements and constraints. The company's products are designed to meet the operational needs of infantry, SWAT, and special operation teams; law enforcement agencies; and first responders.
