Pointman is a tactical robot currently in use with over 20 US Gov’t and LE agencies as well as Marines deployed in Afghanistan. Pointman takes almost no setup time, roughly one minute, and is extremely intuitive to operate. It can scale obstacles up to 11 inches high, including stairs, and is very durable; tossing it through windows and doors has no effect on its operational capacity. In addition, Pointman is compatible with tools including disruptor and radio equipment, features visible and IR lighting, and includes a microphone and headset, making it an excellent choice for reconnaissance missions.
