The Krampus is a hybrid electric-diesel special-purpose vehicle for security or industrial needs
0:12
developed by company Ostara. We seek to develop a fully autonomous vehicle that will deliver revolutionary engineering
0:19
solutions to the vast field of services. Fifteen years ago, serving as an infantry officer in Iraq, I could only dream of a remote-control
0:28
vehicle which would silently deliver air supplies to the units. Later in Afghanistan, I dreamed about an autonomous vehicle which would tirelessly patrol in the
0:37
vicinity of our operating base, without putting at risk the lives of my fellow servicemen
0:44
The Krampus eventually will include all features we dreamed of, making the work of industrial
0:50
air security personnel easier and much safer. The Krampus is powered by a high-voltage battery and a diesel generator
1:01
Batteries can also be charged externally using a CCS Type II charging inlet
1:06
Two electric motors provide the vehicle with 60 kilowatts of power and allow it to travel
1:11
up to 1,000 kilometers when the diesel generator is used. The range of the vehicle in silent mode with the diesel generator shut is up to 200 kilometers
1:20
The velocity of the vehicle is limited to 120 kilometers per hour
1:25
The multifunction platform with a large amount of electricity will provide energy for various
1:29
systems from industrial mechanisms to military-grade electro-optics or other payloads. The Krampus buggy was developed on a modular frame that allows for separating the frame
1:40
driveline, battery pack, and diesel generator for faster replacement in field conditions

Ostera Lab integrates high-performance solutions for electric and hybrid vehicles with an advanced
1:51
battery system. The game-changing hybrid electric power system of the new vehicle offers improved mobility
1:58
in harsh environments. We focus on advanced remote control and autonomous driving, which delivers special features for
2:04
safety, rescue, and other missions. Smart mobility, together with a digital control system, is the key to turning the vehicle
2:12
into a multipurpose mobile robotics platform. Ostera Lab combines modular solutions with vehicle design ideas from the chassis to accessories
2:21
from a control system to interface. We do pay attention to detail, from mathematical modeling to testing in the harshest and most
2:29
rugged of environments. Together, we're making the industry greener and more fuel-efficient
2:36
We develop performance solutions for more efficient mobility. Ostera Lab engineers are working to develop a future high-speed off-road mode of troop
2:45
transport with a hybrid propulsion system. Our vision? To develop a fully autonomous vehicle
