CNIM displays Rocus, a UGV based on the THeMIS for route clearance


CNIM Systèmes Industriels has developed an unmanned ground vehicle based on the THeMIS platform from MILREM Robotics for route clearance in order to meet the security needs of military convoys in the theater of operations. Able to operate in difficult terrain, combining endurance and robustness, ROCUS allows threat to be inspected, confirmed and neutralized to ensure the safety of soldiers and the advance of convoys.

To meet the security needs of military convoys in the theater of operations, CNIM Systèmes Industriels developed an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) for route clearance, based on the THeMIS platform (MILREM Robotics’). CNIM Systèmes Industriels has chosen to partner with MILREM Robotics to develop ROCUS from the THeMIS platform. Used within several armies, the THeMIS platform has multi-mission capabilities: logistics transport, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance whatever the conditions, even the most extreme.

Able to operate in difficult terrain, combining endurance and robustness, ROCUS, Route Clearance Unmanned System, allows threat to be inspected, confirmed and neutralized to ensure the safety of soldiers and the advance of convoys.

ROCUS can be equipped with sensors such as ground penetrating radar thanks to its open architecture.

This unmanned system offers the Forces a better knowledge of the terrain by day & night:

- Secure and allow the troops to advance
- Unmanned ground vehicle UGV : remove the threat from personnel
- Ability to operate out-of-sight: operated under armored vehicle
- Tracked vehicle: high mobility (low ground pressure)
- Reduced logistics footprint
- All-terrain towable: easy to project to the place of operation
