Swarmbotics provides the Attritable Networked Tactical Swarm (ANTS), a combined hardware and software suite that enables large autonomous swarms of modular, expendable unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). The system offers plug‑and‑play payloads for ISR, electronic warfare, logistics, or direct‑action missions, coordinated swarm autonomy with real‑time tasking and triple‑redundant communications, and combat‑grade, IP6‑sealed hardware that integrates with existing C2 structures, allowing a single operator to control multiple robots for scalable tactical advantage.

Problem
Modern combat operations require scalable, low-cost unmanned ground systems that can be deployed in large numbers, operate autonomously, and be sacrificed without jeopardizing mission success. Existing robotic platforms are often expensive, single‑purpose, and lack seamless integration with existing command‑and‑control structures.
Solution
Swarmbotics delivers the Attritable Networked Tactical Swarm (ANTS), a combined hardware and software suite that enables large autonomous swarms of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). The system provides modular, attritable UGVs that can be rapidly reconfigured with payloads for ISR, electronic warfare, logistics, or direct‑action missions. Swarm autonomy software coordinates mixed‑team behaviors, real‑time tasking, and data sharing, accelerating the kill chain while fitting into existing maneuver C2 frameworks. The hardware is built to combat‑grade standards—IP6 sealed, shock‑vibration hardened—and supports triple‑redundant communications via web and ATAK interfaces. Operators control multiple robots from a single console, gaining tactical flexibility without the need for extensive personnel or infrastructure.
Target Audience
Primary customers are military forces and defense contractors seeking affordable, expendable autonomous ground swarms for reconnaissance, electronic warfare, logistics support, and direct‑action missions.
