Łukasiewicz – PIAP with its latest offer at MSPO 2021 Show in Kielce.

The Łukasiewicz Research Network – Industrial Institute for Automation and Measurements, or PIAP – will present its latest proposal for the Polish Armed Forces during the 29th International Defence Industry Show in Kielce, 7-10 September.

During this year’s 29th International Defense Industry Exhibition (MSPO) in Kielce (7 – 10 September), the main theme of the stand of the Łukasiewicz Research Network – Industrial Institute for Automation and Measurements PIAP is going to be a robotic shooting and firing practice system for the training of the Polish military. Łukasiewicz – PIAP will present its products at Stand 71 in Hall D.

The PIAP Mobi Target advanced firing and shooting training practice system will have its premiere in Kielce.

For the first time in Kielce, the PIAP Mobi Target system for advanced firing practice will be presented, which had been created as part of a project co-financed by the National Centre for Research and Development (NCBiR), and was revealed in February this year. (http://PIAP Mobi Target robotic shooting system).

The system is intended for training and improving the skills of officers of the services responsible for state security and defence, as well as armed security personnel, sport shooters or civilian users of weapons for personal defence.

The PIAP Mobi Target consists of a mobile unmanned platform, a control unit with a training interface and a transfer station. The advantage of the system is its mobility, the ability to deploy quickly as well as full independence from the existing communication infrastructure. For the safety of the device and user, software has been created for precise location control and repetitive movement of any mobile platform at the full required speed.

PIAP Mobi Targets can operate in close proximity to each other and surrounded by obstacles in a shooting range. The system moves at distances of up to 1,200 metres, which makes it possible to conduct sniper or sharp-shooting training from long distances.

Logos Imagine STENÓS is the lightest and most durable panel for direct digital radiography. It is also the largest panel with a glass-free design. ( Another PIAP robots for Africa, GRYF for Romanian Armed Forces).

The Institute’s stand will also feature the latest model of the PIAP Fenix ​​backpack reconnaissance robot and the PIAP Patrol medium tracked robot submitted for the Defender Award ( Lukasiewicz-PIAP Institute presents Hunter UGV ).

W tym roku swój udział zapowiedziało blisko 250 wystawców z kraju i ze świata, którzy zaprezentują się na prawie 20 000 metrów kwadratowych powierzchni targowej. Honorowy Patronat nad targami objął Prezydent Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej Andrzej Duda (Ćwierć tysiąca wystawców na MSPO 2021).
