Researchers at the GFZ Research Center for Geosciences are working on developing a new generation of portable, inexpensive gravimeters (a type of accelerometer that is used to precisely measure local gravitational field strength) for real-time […]
Lockheed Martin award BAE Systems a potential five-year, $100 million contract to provide sustainment support for electronic warfare (EW) platforms aboard the F-35 Lightning II fighter jet. BAE will oversee the supply chain for the […]
Orlando, Florida-based startup Luminar is making lidar sensors that will serve as the “eyes” of self-driving cars. The sensors will cost several hundred dollars apiece, while most Lidar sensors cost tens of thousands of dollars […]
Alberto M. Marino, a physicist at The University of Oklahoma, is collaborating with Raphael Pooser at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to develop quantum-enhanced sensors. In a recent study, they were […]
The Swedish Transport Administration recently completed part of a road near Stockholm that charges electric vehicles as they drive on it. The goal of the project is to generate knowledge, experience, and decision data that […]
Lockheed Martin has announced that in a little more than a year it expects to launch a new “flow” battery made of inexpensive, non-toxic materials that can help utilities save money and use more renewable […]
The 10th Mountain Division have received training in electronic warfare from the Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC) located at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado. 10th CAB Electronic Warfare Specialists used a small, portable […]
Canada has invested $2.7M ($2.1M USD) into developing quantum radar – a new technology that would greatly improve the detection of stealth aircraft. Quantum radar can theoretically detect objects with a greater level of accuracy […]
The U.S. Army Research Laboratory is collaborating with the University of Minnesota to explore the potential uses of soft robots – where machines are built not of steel, but of highly compliant plastics. Robots in […]
The United States Air Force has assembled a cross-functional group – known as an enterprise capability collaboration team – that will examine how the service will continue to lead, operate, and integrate electronic warfare (EW) […]
