The U.S. Army’s Program Executive Office for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors will soon open a new office and laboratory at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland – The PNT Modernization Office – to develop solutions […]
Researchers at Caltech and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab have built a tube-launched drone that removes the standard requirements for takeoff conditions. The football-shaped foldable quadrotor is fired out of a cannon, unfolds itself, and then […]
Researchers from the department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of North Texas have received a $780,000 grant from the Army Research Laboratory to study the combustion engines used in aerial Army drones. […]
Horizon31 – a spin out from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) – seeks to commercialize a system that allows users to operate drones from anywhere in the world using only an […]
The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has issued a broad agency announcement for the Science of Atomic Vapors for New Technologies (SAVaNT) project. They are seeking technologies for the advancement of high-performance atomic […]
The Defense Department’s technology innovation unit (DIU) recently approved five U.S. companies for drone production as alternatives to Chinese-made systems. Altavian, Parrot SA, Skydio, Teal, and Vantage Robotics are now all approved to provide Airborne […]
What are you using to plan for the smart cities of the future? Having access to real location intelligence helps you identify areas for development, pinpoint potential problem situations, and track property assets over time […]
Encoding the physics of materials behavior, and harnessing the domain knowledge from many decades of materials development and testing, machine learning, artificial intelligence and simulation approaches are being used to discover entirely new materials for […]
