Headquartered in Sydney, Marathon Targets designs and manufactures Autonomous Robotic Targets (ARTs): armored, networked humanoid systems that move, react, and coordinate during live-fire exercises. Unlike static steel or pop-up systems, these robots patrol, flank, retreat, and respond dynamically when engaged.
The company supports military and law enforcement clients through both hardware supply and training-as-a-service deployments, bringing robotic fleets onto existing ranges. For sniper and precision-fire applications, the systems enable realistic unknown-distance movers, PID-driven engagements, and multi-target prioritization under stress. Marathon bridges the gap between static range work and real-world moving human threats at extended distances.
