RE2 Robotics

It goes without saying that the neutralizing of underwater mines is a risky task – definitely one that you'd avoid sending a scuba diver to do, if at all possible. That's why Pittsburgh-based RE2 Robotics is designing a robotic system to do the job.

RE2 Robotics, a Carnegie Mellon spin-off located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has been tapped by the US Air Force to develop a drop-in robotic system that can fly an unmodified aircraft in much the same way as a human pilot.
