Polaris has filed a patent for an autonomous vehicle system that enables remote and autonomous operation modes, likely targeting military applications. This move could allow Polaris to capture revenue currently earned by third-party companies modifying its vehicles with autonomous technology for defence contracts.

Polaris is about to take control of military autonomous vehicle tech in-house, forcing aftermarket modifiers aside and opening direct defence contract revenue to you if you build related tech.
