Sending robots into battle rather than humans has always been the preferred option, but until such time that robots are able to make their own decisions, there is the HARV 0- the Head-Aimed Remote Viewer system.

Developed by Chatten Associates the HARV system features a gimbal mounted remote video system on the robot with gyro equipped VR goggles for the user; allowing the robot to look wherever the users head moves to.

Trials have shown that the HARV can improve mission performance by 300 to 400 per cent.
