Marksmanship against paper doesn't transfer to marksmanship against people.

HTT is a mobile, trackless robotic target that moves like the threat it stands in for, deployed across live-fire ranges without rails or fixed infrastructure.

Human Type Targets

The Human Type Targets (HTT) system replaces the static, predictable range with an adversary that moves like one. HTT is a mobile, trackless smart target deployable across whatever terrain the mission calls for, indoors or out, and it doesn't wait for a shooter to find it: preprogrammed scenarios, Location of Hit and Miss (LOMAH) data capture, and built-in After-Action Review turn every live-fire exercise into training data, not just spent rounds.

Fielded with: Special Operations Law Enforcement Allied Forces

See HTT in Action

Four HTT units moving independently across open terrain, holding formation, and reacting to the scenario in real time. This is what a live-fire range looks like when the targets stop waiting to be found.

Filmed on an actual training range, not a demo stage. What you're watching is the baseline behavior every HTT ships with.

The Problem With Static Targets

Every fixed target teaches the same lesson: where to aim at something that isn't going anywhere. Real threats move, hide, and react, and a range that can't replicate that isn't testing marksmanship, it's testing memorization.

Current solutions for mobile targets are limited

Little on-board intelligence capable of supporting a realistic training experience

Lack of sensor support

Limited user controls

Target data limited to observational skills and tactical abilities of the control crew

What HTT Does

Every capability below exists to answer one question: does the target hold up to a real exercise, or does it need babysitting between shots? HTT is built to run the scenario, not interrupt it.

Torso built from self-healing ballistic polymer, dressed in training-specific clothing, so the same target survives thousands of rounds and always looks like the scenario calls for

Preprogrammed scenarios capture Location of Miss and Hit (LOMAH) automatically, so feedback happens in the debrief, not just in the shooter's memory

Torso resets to firing position remotely, no walk-downrange required, so training tempo doesn't stop for maintenance

The Behavioral Logic and Control Module governs how the target moves and reacts, so scenarios stay unpredictable instead of running the same script every time

Operate manually or let HTT run semi-autonomously within scenario-defined geospatial boundaries, matching the level of control the exercise actually needs

On-demand remote control lets an instructor step in mid-scenario without stopping the exercise

Built on Open Standards, Not Proprietary Lock-In

HTT supports Geospatial Infrastructure and Standards for Autonomous Vehicles through level 4, and complies with the IEEE 1872 robotic and automation ontology standard and NIST robot message language guidelines. That means HTT integrates into the training ecosystem you already run, and the one you build next, instead of locking your range to a single vendor's proprietary control scheme.

HTT plugs in. It doesn't lock you in. HTT connects to IEEE 1872 robotic and automation ontology, NIST Robot Message Language, Geospatial Infrastructure and Standards for Autonomous Vehicles Level 4, and your existing training ecosystem, with no proprietary lock-in.

Four standards, one target. No proprietary control scheme to work around.

Why It Matters

None of this matters if the target can't survive the training day. HTT is built for the range, not the showroom, so the advantages below show up in throughput and realism, not a spec sheet nobody reads before the exercise.

Stability on all types of terrain, indoor and outdoor, wet and dry, paved and unpaved

Easily interchangeable mount

Provides smart targets for dynamic, interactive scenarios involving groups of targets and civilian robots

Modular design and development

Exhibits human-like behaviors and reactions

Reacts to various levels of engagement

Differentiates between lethal hits, non-lethal hits, and near misses

HTT is one of several platforms in our Autonomous Solutions practice.

Full specifications, sensor details, and integration requirements are in the brochure below, built for the program offices and range officers who need the numbers before they need the demo.
