00:12The whole point of this is to walk into higher situations, walk right into a place where you don't want to put a body,

00:17and now you basically have a cannon on the go.

00:20So this is one modular piece that we've had to the V2.

00:24We also have thermal sensors, thermal cameras, gas sensors, oxygen sensors.
