Military robotics and the Army of the Czech Republic
Abstrakt: The world of information technology and automation passed an
unprecedented expansion in the last decade and it affects all areas of our lives
today, including the military. As shown in many military operations, for example
in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and other countries, the results of research and
development have played a decisive role, indicating that the high technological
approaches in combat has proven itself as a key element of a victory in almost
all conducted conflicts.

This factor is speeding up the development of selected military-technological
areas, which slowly indicate a breakthrough in the ways of the combat operations
management in "the depth and width", which the human has not experienced
throughout its existence yet. With a high probability it can be said, that we
are on the edge of another technological revolution, which certainly will have a
serious impact on the global society. It will perhaps surpass all previous
milestones of human progress and maybe even some visions from Sci-Fi literature.

The impacts of significant advances in the development on the field of
artificial intelligence, robotics and industrial automation, can be very
difficult to predict, even in the short term.

The aim of the presentation is to briefly inform students with a short history
of armed conflicts and the impact of technology on command and control, on
possible approaches that lately come, also, possible ways, how to implement
robotic systems in military operations and the effect of artificial intelligence
on the military operations management, how to increase the effectiveness of
operational command and control, and briefly summarize research and development
in the field of military robotics within the Army of the Czech Republic.
