Saint-Cyr-l’École, November 2025 – In the high-stakes arena of CBRN threat management, the rise of robotic and drone-based solutions marks a paradigm shift in the way hazardous environments are monitored and secured. Among these, ground robots play a decisive role.
For over decade, Proengin’s detectors have been part of numerous robotic integrations, a journey that began with the first AP4C-V tests conducted by French MOD. Since then, more and more robots have started using Proengin’s technology, making the company an important player in the use of robots for CBRN missions.
Multi-Platform Integrations Built on Strong Partnerships
Over the years, Proengin detectors have been integrated onto ground platforms developed by leading robotics manufacturers, including Exail (with the Iguana robot, Nexter Robotics with the NERVA LG robot and Centurio heavy robot, and even the Boston Dynamics Spot Robot.
This extensive knowledge is achieved through open communication architecture, making it easy to connect with different setups. Dedicated interfaces and modular accessories bolster interoperability, facilitating seamless integrations.
Safer, Faster, and Smarter Operations
The integration of CBRN detection onto robotic platforms protects lives by maintaining a safe distance between operators and potential threats. But beyond safety, it reduces mission completion time by enabling parallel task execution. Robots equipped with Proengin detectors can navigate through obstacles, while carrying detection systems into confined or hazardous areas, reducing the physical load on operators.
Robot-mounted detectors enable operators to maintain critical mission readiness, advance with a "moving CBRN bubble" that continuously monitors the environment, and relay real-time information to commanders. In parallel, these systems simplify area mapping, improve communication within teams, and enhance coordination, anticipation, and operational success, enabling quicker assessments and faster decision-making.
Operational Applications Across Multiple Domains
These integrations provide immediate operational value across diverse contexts:
- Defense & Reconnaissance: battlefield surveillance, base protection, and area clearance.
- Industrial Safety: high-risk facility monitoring and toxic emission detection.
- Civil Protection: response to natural disasters and incident management in NRBC environments.
- Border Security: cargo inspection and control of mass transport systems.
A Vision Driven by Interoperability and Innovation
“Our commitment to open architecture empowers customers to deploy our detecting solutions across their entire robotics fleet, regardless of platform manufacturer—creating a truly unified CBRN detection ecosystem that adapts to their operational needs.” - Gautier Mallet, Marketing Director – Proengin
Looking Ahead: Collaboration and Future Integrations
Several new collaborations are currently underway to expand these integration capabilities even further. Proengin invites industrial partners and system integrators to engage with its teams—whether to discuss specific integration needs or to explore innovative system solutions offering real-time visualization and threat mapping.
We will showcase these capabilities at Milipol Paris 2025 on Booth 5A M200. Join us to discover how Proengin’s interoperable CBRN solutions are shaping the future of detection and robotic operations.
