This proposal is designed to extend Roam's current wearable robot capabilities into SOF-specific applications. To accomplish this, this project is designed to develop and validate the base requirements of a wearable system to meet SOF peculiar mission sets through system evaluation, design refinement, and voice of the customer capture. Within this project, we will target specific user populations ...

HQ AFSOC A2 and JSOC’s JIB have a national defense-related mission need in rapid, effective decision-making to support the nation’s elite special operators. The initial Cerebras’ super-computing Phase II successfully validated the system’s ability to util

For decades 81mm mortars have always been an indirect area suppression weapon. Aiming the mortar tube on the correct vector and getting the tube elevation angle and charge calculation accurate enough to strike the intended target on the 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd round is very rare. This consistently results in time, ammunitions, cost, and communication effort being wasted for both the mortar team and ...

The increasing reach and capabilities of adversaries Integrated Air Defense (IADs) present an access, reach, and cost challenge to blue forces. A low-cost weapon system possessing significant reach and payload capacity with multiple systems launched simultaneously could overwhelm adversaries IADs systems. The focus of this proposal is research and development related to the Air Force’s future ar ...

Tenacity Space Systems (TSS), Inc. proposes to perform a flight demonstration of the Tenacity Target Vehicle (TTV) to address payload mass and kinematic performance requirements for Missile Defense Agency (MDA) target applications. The demonstration flight will focus on several key technologies that will offer MDA a low-cost liquid fueled target vehicle for future missions. The TTV is based on an ...

This program will aim to address the size, weight, power and cost challenges associated sensor data processing and analysis at the edge that today limit platform capabilities in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) as well as other aerospace and airborne settings. Existing platforms are limited by storage and downlink capabilities, power budget, and delayed availability, data assurance, sensor node resiliency as ...

Cognicom’s Nano Secure Radio (NSR) is a Software-Defined Radio platform built with the most advanced LPI/LPD waveform family using state-of-the-art hardware components in both baseband signal processing and RF circuitry. Additional waveform features will be added in Phase-2 to further enhance the waveform performance. With the most optimized Size, Weight, and Power and a battery-operated, hand-h ...

Primer’s disinformation work in support of USSOCOM has established the foundation for a state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence (AI) Information and Influence Operations (I2O) platform. However, with adversaries gaining access to large parameter (e.g. GPT-J) language models and ever sophisticated, AI-enabled disinformation tools, there is an urgent need to continue to build on our Natural Langu ...

Route optimization using IoT devices has the potential to make air travel safer, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly. We are building a system to improve these concerns and opportunities as part of a greater autonomy package. Success will be measured against existing routes’ fuel usage, as well as pilot and operator selectable variables to provide a better experience based on the n ...

Beacon AI is building an AI assistant (AI Copilot) to enable piloted aircraft to fly in a safer and more efficient manner. In this research project we intend to advance the state of the art for pilot monitoring systems while integrating a system to improve flight safety and operational efficiency. The pilot monitoring system would be integrated into our edge compute platform, further enhanced by m ...
