Robots and Autonomous Systems (RAS) are an evolving industry for militaries around the world. RAS refers to the physical layout (robotic) and cognitive (autonomous) aspects of certain unmanned or uninhabited systems. Although the public’s perception of RAS is often rather narrow, seen as exclusively about lethal force use, the reality is RAS can be applied to numerous military functions and tasks, for example to transporting and supply or for communication.
