10 Deadly Breakthroughs in Ground Unmanned Systems: The 6th One Changes Battlefield Rules

4. Quantum-Enhanced Target Recognition (QETR)

In battlefield awareness for autonomous ground systems, quantum-enhanced target recognition marks a fundamental change. This technique uses quantum computing ideas to process optical and sensor data at hitherto unheard-of rates, therefore allowing nearly flawless accuracy in real-time target recognition and categorisation. Even in difficult surroundings, QETR can tell combatants from civilians, spot hidden weapons, and spot camouflaged targets. Modern military operations would be much benefited from the system's capacity to make split-second targeting judgements based on rules of engagement.
