Duke Robotics Inc. has developed, and is in the process of commercializing, an advanced robotics system that enables remote, real-time, pinpoint accurate firing of small arms and light weapons.
TIKAD, the Future Soldier, saves lives by replacing boots on the ground. Duke Robotics will work with select government clients around the globe with the goal to reduce the number of deployed troops as well as empower troops with immediate air-power deployment, improving prospects of mission success, minimizing battlefield injuries, loss of life to friendly troops and saving innocent civilians.
TIKAD has been designed to be used by unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, our robotic solutions are also adaptable to other military vehicles, boats and stationary environments, as well as civilian purposes like high definition, high-end stabilized cameras. We are able to achieve pinpoint accuracy regardless of the movement of the weapons platform or the target. Our system is to small arms and light weapons (e.g., weapons weighing less than 9 kg) what drones are to air-to-ground missiles.

• Extensive military experience, technological know-how, and diversified skills both from founders and employees.
• Created TIKAD to provide immediate air support and replace troops in the battlefield, which is a need identified by many experienced military veterans.
• TIKAD will limit collateral damage in the battlefield, using precise firing in real-time with innovative software and user interface technologies.
TIKAD represents the combination of the military experience from our founders and employees, along with a high level of technological know-how and diversified skills. TIKAD is one of the best solutions for modern asymmetrical warfare. Our troop’s needs are constantly evolving, as expressed by veterans and elite military personnel. Duke Robotics builds advanced technology to support the modern needs of our troops by utilizing a deep familiarity with current military operational demands and challenges, as well as experience in Israeli Special Missions Unit (SMU).
Using this expertise, the Duke Robotics team created a unique high-end technology solution – a six degrees of freedom parallel robotic system that works in real time and can stabilize objects up to triple its weight.
TIKAD’s unique robotic stabilization platform permits a payload to “float” against rotations in all three axes, as well as against vibration and motion in all three directions of movement.
In many combat scenarios, Duke Robotics believes that one or more TIKAD drones will be able to provide necessary cover and tactical advantage for troops. Duke’s leadership also believes that TIKAD may reduce the number of troops needed on the battlefield and may limit broad collateral damage in urban environments.
The Duke Robotics management team has extensive experience in the UAV and robotics fields, as well as experience in the Israeli Special Missions Unit (SMU). Their expertise is based on years of developing complex military airborne systems, advanced robotics, real-time software and innovative user interface technologies.
Duke Robotics believes that their DKL-MK-1-SU robot can bring solutions that do not yet exist for different tasks that require high-end stabilization, such as:
• Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) robotic landing systems for drones.
• Real time Stabilization of different platforms used in air, sea, and ground.
• Other applications in the civil field, including in the medical field.
Duke Robotics has developed the TIKAD — The Future Soldier — to give troops a significant advantage and greater chances of success in dangerous situations.
• Immediate air power is highly requested by experienced military personnel and elite Special Forces.
• Easy to operate and carry into the field.
“When they (terrorists) operate, they operate within the civilian population,” said former battalion commander and CEO of Duke Robotics Raziel Atuar. “You cannot shoot a missile into a targeted area. The only solution you have is sending in the troops, but the collateral damage will be too high and you want to prevent mass casualties. We thought, ‘what if…what if there was a better way’. So we created that solution: the TIKAD.”
With the mission to save lives and to empower troops with immediate air power deployment, Duke Robotics has developed the TIKAD — The Future Soldier — a high-powered drone capable of carrying various light weapons payloads, with pinpoint targeting and shooting accuracy that can protect troops in a variety of dangerous situations.
The classic army versus army confrontation has become increasingly rare, while guerrilla warfare is now commonplace. The use of UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) to fire small arms from the air has not yet been a viable option. Until now.

Governments, especially the U.S., are willing to invest in the right tools to protect their interests at home and abroad.
TIKAD, The Future Soldier, empowers troops with:
• Immediate airpower deployment
• Improved prospects of mission success
• Minimized battlefield injuries and casualties, both for friendly troops and innocent civilians
TIKAD Offers Troops the Air Support They Need
• In fighting the global war on terror, the United States and other countries around the world have significantly increased their use of UAVs for intelligence gathering, surveillance and tactical applications.
• The use of UAVs to fire small arms and light weapons from the air, however, has not yet become a viable option.
• The TIKAD addresses a crucial need of modern warfare, allowing troops more options when encountering remote hostile targets, while at the same time minimizing collateral damage.
