Access to safe drinking water remains a challenge for billions of people worldwide, particularly during natural disasters and in regions with limited infrastructure. Traditional...

Explosive ordnance disposal teams, special operations units, and emergency responders often face a difficult dilemma: gaining information about a potentially dangerous area without exposing...

Maintaining large electrical grids is a difficult and often dangerous task. Power lines stretch across vast distances, pass through hard-to-reach terrain, and require regular...

Modern military systems are becoming increasingly software-driven and interconnected. Sensors, drones, command-and-control platforms, electronic warfare systems, and weapons must all work together across air,...

Smartphone LiDAR sensors have become common in high-end devices, mainly supporting augmented reality features and depth sensing for photography. But despite their growing capabilities,...

When someone falls overboard, time becomes the most critical factor in survival. Ships traveling at speed require time to stop, launch rescue craft, and...

Over the past several decades, nations and armed organizations have invested heavily in moving strategic assets underground. Combat tunnels, bunkers, ammunition depots, command centers,...

Engineers have long looked to origami and kirigami for inspiration when designing lightweight structures that can transform shape without relying on complex mechanical systems....

When a fire alarm sounds, most people instinctively head toward the nearest exit. The problem is that the closest route is not always the...

Protecting borders, critical infrastructure, and transportation corridors is becoming increasingly challenging as the number of threats and users operating within these environments continues to...

As defense technology becomes increasingly software-driven, military organizations are looking beyond traditional defense contractors and toward companies specializing in autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, sensors,...

Security labels, optical data storage systems, and environmental sensors often face the same limitation: once information is encoded, it remains static. Creating materials that...

Most robots are designed around familiar biological forms. Engineers often model machines after humans, dogs, insects, or other animals, relying on centralized software and...

Foldable structures are widely used in engineering because they can transform from compact flat sheets into larger three-dimensional forms. But most existing designs face...

Modern soldiers increasingly operate with multiple connected devices at once, such as radios, sensors, cameras, navigation systems, hearing protection, and digital battlefield applications. While...

Modern air defense systems are increasingly facing a difficult economic problem. One-way attack drones and loitering munitions can be produced cheaply and launched in...

Flying autonomous drones through unpredictable environments remains one of the biggest technical challenges in robotics. In confined spaces such as collapsed buildings, industrial sites,...

As small drones become faster, cheaper, and more numerous, traditional radar systems are facing a growing challenge. Most electronically scanned array (ESA) radars detect...

Last week in Tel Aviv, a workshop was held as part of the INNOFENSE program, the innovation center operated by iHLS in collaboration with...

Small unmanned aerial systems have become an increasingly common challenge for naval forces. Surveillance drones can track ship movements, collect targeting information, and operate...

Detecting extremely weak vibrations usually requires complex electronics, amplification circuits, and continuous signal processing. Whether in microphones, environmental monitoring systems, or biomedical devices, improving...

Coordinating large numbers of robots to perform complex tasks remains a major challenge. Traditional systems often rely on centralized control, detailed planning, and constant...
