    A young man holding a keyboard/controller stands next to a small wheeled ground robot marked 'BD' that is topped with a mannequin dressed in tattered clothing and holding a replica firearm. The setting appears to be a military training facility or range, with soldiers visible in the background and green hills beyond. This appears to be a military robotics demonstration or training exercise involving a target-simulation robot.

    Nathan Fung poses with an Autonomous Robotic Human Type Target Feb. 18, at Camp Pendleton. Marines from Division Schools 1st Marine Division tested the targets to see if they could use them to evolve their training by creating more realistic, less predictable scenarios. Fung, a robotics engineer for Marathon Targets, is a native of Sydney, Australia. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Cpl. John Baker)

    A young man holding a keyboard/controller stands next to a small wheeled ground robot marked 'BD' that is topped with a mannequin dressed in tattered clothing and holding a replica firearm. The setting appears to be a military training facility or range, with soldiers visible in the background and green hills beyond. This appears to be a military robotics demonstration or training exercise involving a target-simulation robot.
    Three mannequins or dummy figures dressed in colorful clothing are mounted on wheeled robotic platforms traveling along a dirt road in a hilly, overcast landscape. Each figure appears to have a replica firearm attached to it, suggesting this is a military or law enforcement training range using moving target systems. The setting appears to be a live-fire or tactical training facility with green hills visible in the background.
    A military rifle range training exercise is underway, with two personnel in camouflage uniforms in the prone firing position aiming rifles downrange. Several observers and supervisors, including uniformed military personnel and civilians, stand to the right watching the exercise. The setting appears to be an outdoor range on overcast, hilly terrain.
    A person wearing military digital camouflage (MARPAT pattern) and hearing protection is aiming a rifle at an outdoor shooting range. The setting appears to be a military training facility with a flat open range area, distant target structures, and mountainous terrain in the background. Overcast and misty weather conditions are present.
    A military service member in MARPAT digital camouflage uniform is in the prone firing position on a shooting range, aiming a rifle downrange. Spent brass casings are visible scattered on the ground beside the shooter, indicating active or recent firing. The range extends into a valley with green hills in the background and target markers visible downrange.
