A Route Clearance Unmanned System (ROCUS) is a specialized Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) designed to detect and neutralize mines, Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), and other explosive hazards along roads and pathways. These robotic systems are equipped with ground-penetrating radar, metal detectors, manipulator arms, and often a disruptor or neutralization charge to safely dispose of threats. By leading convoys or conducting pre-movement sweeps, they keep human engineers and troops at a safe distance, dramatically reducing casualties during route clearance operations in conflict zones and post-conflict areas.

  • Robotic platform for detecting and neutralizing landmines and IEDs on routes.

  • Equipped with arrays of sensors: ground-penetrating radar, metal detectors, and cameras.

  • Features a robotic arm to place disruptor charges or remove suspicious objects.

  • Used by military EOD teams to secure roads for troop and civilian movement.

  • A critical force protection asset in asymmetric warfare environments.

  • Saves lives by performing the most dangerous part of route clearance remotely.
