Pulling Soldier Mobility into the 3rd Dimension

The ATLAS Powered Rope Ascender created by Atlas Devices is a powerful new tool that enables "reverse rappelling" up buildings and other vertical surfaces at unprecedented speeds.

Using Atlas's patented rope interaction design, the lightweight ATLAS Ascender can pull a fully-loaded soldier or firefighter up a rappelling line at up to 10 ft/sec, as well as tow vehicles and even remotely move equipment and casualties.

With the capability to reach the top of a building or cliff in only seconds, new advantages are gained in urban warfare, rescue operations, industrial access, and beyond.
