Test subjects in this test bed would stand in place of the dummy and shoot themselves with a paint gun. The research sought to address the possible associations among personality, pain tolerance, paintball velocity, injury severity and motivation. Researchers wanted to see how much pain was needed on the first shot to make a person decide not to take a second shot. Most subjects took the second shot, even though they got paid the same amount of money if they didn’t. (U.S. Army photo by Kenneth Short, RDECOM ARDEC)

The TALON, shown in use in Tikrit, Iraq, in 2005, was among the first systems that allowed Soldiers to disarm IEDs from a distance, using a remote controller in the EOD vehicle. In an effort to standardize its robotic platforms and reduce its operational footprint, the Army plans to replace the TALON with MTRS, a 164-pound tracked vehicle that can identify and clear land mines, IEDs and CBRN hazards.
