As Israeli ground forces literally stand on the brink of invading Gaza, they are likely being aided by the world's first operational unmanned ground vehicle, the Guardium, which is already prowling the border between Israel and Gaza.
the Guardiums are being used in a similar manner as UAVs, running patrols by themselves and using their sensors, equipped with "auto-target acquisition," to look for the enemy and their weapons and...well, we'll see. The IDF says the little robo-cars can "use various forceful methods to eliminate" threats.
Equipped with 360 degree cameras, the Guardium is conserving IDF soldier's lives.

Yep . This Robot is so easy to be defeated . FLop Plan from IDF .
Yes much better to have soldiers inside so when the IED goes off they die too. Why are people unable to use logic?

the fighters in Gaza only have home made candles (an actual quote), fireworks and toy rockets why will this only last five minutes?
It kinda looks like ED-209 with wheels, so some stairs should do the trick.

Maybe Gaza should request some tech help from Iran. Take the buggies over and send them back with guns blazing. If you could capture one, rip out the RC and have it tethered by cable it could be a useful little machine gun nest.
It is RC so a Faraday net may halt it in its tracks. A hole in the ground will stop it as will blocking it in until it runs its battery down. Catching a hook on it and lifting it up in the air would work.
Any other ideas. ATS is widely read.

Palestinians could build RoboInsurgents to fight the Israeli RoboCars and then have the entire conflict fought with machines. The military industrial complex would still reap its profits but no human lives would be lost. Ah, paradise.
