FLIR PackBot is a man-transportable robot that performs bom disposal, surveillance and reconnaissance, CBRN detection and HazMat handling operations.

PackBot easily climbs stairs and navigates narrow passages, relaying real-time video, audio, and sensor data while the operator remains at a safer stand-off distance. More than 4,000 PackBot robots have been delivered worldwide.

PackBot is deployable by one person in under two minutes. The robot stows neatly in vehicle, even fitting in a car’s trunk. The PackBot manipulator lifts up to 44 lb (20 kg) and supports numerous accessories, sensors, and disruptor solutions. PackBot is controlled from the uPoint® Multi-Robot Control system, featuring a touchscreen-based tablet controller that allows an operator to select from across the family of connected robots.

PackBot uses the MPU5 radio operating on the Wave Relay® MANET, to form a robust network in which robots, operators, and observers seamlessly operate together.
