Hmm. I always thought these were called "mines." I guess this would be a smarter version?

Yes. In 10-20 years, the mines will be smart enough to exchange sensor readings with each other and coordinate an attack. Can you imagine an entire division getting ambushed at one time?

Cool. As long as they stay dumb enough not to turn on you, of course. I keep imagining the evil snowmen that Calvin (of Calvin and Hobbes) would create that would come to life and try to kill him.
