ALPAGU
WHY ALPAGU?
Autonomous Defense and Reconnaissance Robotic Systems
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
ALPAGU is a family of autonomous and semi-autonomous ground robotic systems designed for high-risk military, strategic, and crisis environments, with a primary focus on protecting human life.
The system aims to reduce direct human presence in dangerous areas while providing real-time situational awareness and decision-support data to commanders and operators.
PROJECT VISION
ALPAGU’s vision is to combine the core principles of Turkish military tradition—intelligence, discipline, and courage—with modern robotics and artificial intelligence, delivering next-generation defense solutions that comply with ethical and legal standards.
