Dual-use technology

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...

Future wireless networks are expected to handle far more than faster internet speeds. Emerging 6G concepts aim to combine communications with sensing and AI-driven...

As artificial intelligence systems become more capable, governments are increasingly viewing them through the lens of national security rather than purely commercial technology. The...

Coordinating large groups of robots usually requires complex software, wireless communication, and centralized control systems. But these approaches can become fragile in unpredictable environments...

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

GPS and other satellite navigation systems have become essential infrastructure for aviation, maritime transport, communications, and critical timing networks. When these signals are disrupted,...

As AI models become more capable, developers face a growing challenge: how to make powerful systems widely available without also increasing the risk of...

Large organizations are increasingly turning to AI to manage growing volumes of data and administrative workload. Traditional tools, such as spreadsheets, static dashboards, and...

Software developers increasingly rely on open-source repositories to accelerate development, integrate new features, and build cloud-based applications. The trust placed in these repositories is...

Spyware attacks against messaging platforms remain one of the most serious challenges in digital security. While encrypted apps are designed to protect private conversations,...

Transmitting information between underwater and airborne systems has long posed a technical challenge. Sound behaves very differently in water compared to air due to...

As software systems become more complex, identifying vulnerabilities before deployment is becoming increasingly difficult. Security teams often work separately from development workflows, reviewing code...

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

Robots have become increasingly capable in controlled environments, but they still struggle to replicate the adaptability and precision seen in animals. Biological movement relies...

As 5G networks continue expanding into critical infrastructure, autonomous systems, and industrial environments, the demands on network security are increasing rapidly. High-speed connectivity and...

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

Training helicopter pilots for wildfire missions is particularly difficult because the environment itself is constantly changing. Smoke, shifting winds, rising heat, and the interaction...

Airports operate in highly complex environments where even small communication or coordination errors can escalate into serious safety risks. Runway incursions, misinterpreted instructions, and...

Modern military operations depend heavily on satellite navigation. From troop movements and logistics to targeting and timing synchronization, GPS-based positioning systems are deeply embedded...

Modern communication networks are under increasing pressure. Cloud computing, streaming services, connected devices, and real-time applications continue to drive massive growth in data traffic,...

Reliable communications remain a persistent challenge in remote and infrastructure-poor environments. Military units, border security teams, and operators working in isolated areas often depend...

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