The operational capability was proven within the scope of a technology demonstration at the German Army Combat Training Centre (GÜZ).
The demonstration showcased how the assisted and automated reconnaissance capabilities of the 'MUV' could be compared against the real-time situation display of the AGDUS dual simulator used at the GÜZ.
Objects were detected and classified in a non-controlled scenario using machine learning algorithms.
