The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) was established in 1958 to prevent strategic surprise from negatively impacting U.S. national security and create strategic surprise for U.S. adversaries by maintaining the technological superiority of the U.S. military.
To fulfill its mission, the Agency relies on diverse performers to apply multi-disciplinary approaches to both advance knowledge through basic research and create innovative technologies that address current practical problems through applied research. DARPA's scientific investigations span the gamut from laboratory efforts to the creation of full-scale technology demonstrations in the fields of biology, medicine, computer science, chemistry, physics, engineering, mathematics, material sciences, social sciences, neurosciences and more. As the DoD's primary innovation engine, DARPA undertakes projects that are finite in duration but that create lasting revolutionary change.
http://www.MilitarySkyNet.com hosts news stories, photos, video clips and other forms of Multi Media pertaining to the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard's rapid development and proliferation of robotic weapons, machines and fully autonomous weapons that could select and engage targets without human intervention. Robot warfare and autonomous weapons, the next step from unmanned drones, are already being worked on by military scientists around the world and will be available within the decade. Deploying robot soldiers will potentially save lives of real soldiers. Autonomous robotic weapons won't get tired and they won't seek revenge if their colleague is killed.
