The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) has awarded BAE Systems a $14M contract to develop tools to decipher radio frequency (RF) signals in order to quickly and accurately help secure mission-critical information. It’s expected […]
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been running trials of quadrupedal robots – often called robot dogs – on the southern border. The goal of the program is to leverage technology to force-multiply […]
DARPA recently awarded Northrop Grumman and the University of Central Florida (UCF) a contract to develop a prototype of an artificial intelligence (AI) assistant. The Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance (PTG) program will create the prototype that […]
The Air Force Research Laboratory is seeking companies to develop advanced-technology, inexpensive electro-optical sensors for small disposable unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Low-Cost Optical Systems Technology (LOW-COST) project aims to reduce the cost, size, and […]
DARPA has released a broad-agency announcement for the Strategic Chaos Engine for Planning, Tactics, Experimentation and Resiliency (SCEPTER) program. SCEPTER will explore the highly complex state action space during military engagements at the speed of […]
The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory recently issued a solicitation for the Real-Time Assessment and Augmentation of Cognitive Performance in Extreme Environments project. The project seeks to develop wearable sensors to detect fatigue and stress […]
The US Army is currently testing drones and other types of autonomous technology that could deliver medical supplies to the battlefield. The Army’s Medical Research and Development Command’s (USAMRDC) Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center […]
DARPA has awarded a $19.3 million US contract to Peraton Labs for the Mission-Integrated Network Control (MINC) project. The MINC program will create a self-healing web-like network that will connect sensors and weapons working in […]
U.S. Naval Forces Central Command (NAVCENT) recently began operational testing of a sailboat-style drone. The tests are part of an initiative to integrate new unmanned systems and artificial intelligence into U.S. 5th Fleet operations. The […]
