A Counter-Drone System Anyone Can Operate
The growing use of small drones is creating a new operational burden: countering them often requires trained specialists, dedicated equipment, and time-consuming setup. In...
Real-Time Tracking Replaces Manual Reports on the Battlefield
Tracking personnel in large, dynamic environments has long relied on manual updates, spreadsheets, and fragmented reporting systems. In fast-moving operations, these methods can lag...
A Plug-and-Play Laser Defense for Modern Threats
Drone threats at sea are becoming more frequent and harder to manage. Small, low-cost UAVs can be launched in large numbers, forcing naval forces...
The Push to Stop Drones With Beams Instead of Missiles
The growing use of small drones is forcing a rethink in short-range air defense. Commercial quadcopters and improvised FPV systems are inexpensive, easy to...
OpenAI: The Race Is On to Use AI for Defense Before...
As AI systems become more capable at writing and analyzing code, cybersecurity teams are facing a new reality: the same tools that can help...
A New Layered Defense for Evolving Torpedo Threats
Undersea threats are becoming harder to counter. Modern torpedoes are faster, quieter, and more capable of adjusting their course mid-run, leaving ships with very...
Say Goodbye to Congestion: A New Kind of Wireless
Wireless networks are under growing pressure as more devices compete for bandwidth indoors. Offices, homes, and public spaces are increasingly crowded with Wi-Fi and...
A Smarter Way to Control Flexible Robots in Tight Spaces
Robots are increasingly expected to operate in confined and complex environments, from industrial machinery to medical procedures inside the human body. Traditional robotic arms,...
Forget Tilting: A New Way for Drones to Fly
Traditional drones rely on a simple principle: to move forward, they must tilt. This dependence on body orientation limits maneuverability, slows response time, and...
The First Suspected AI-Built Zero-Day Has Cybersecurity Experts Watching Closely
Cybersecurity teams have long worried that artificial intelligence could eventually accelerate the development of sophisticated cyberattacks. While AI tools are already used for phishing,...
The Hidden Potential Behind Space-Based Solar Power
As demand for clean and continuous energy grows, space-based solar power has emerged as a long-term solution. By collecting sunlight in orbit, where it...
Fighting Drones Without Leaving the Tank
Modern armored units are facing a new challenge: drones are no longer a rare threat, but a constant presence. Small UAVs can locate, track,...
Can Bamboo Replace Carbon Fiber in Drones? New Tech Says Yes
The push toward more sustainable drone designs has introduced a less obvious technical challenge: materials matter. While bamboo offers clear advantages as a lightweight,...
This Hidden Electric Push Could Power the Next Generation of Robotics
Electric motors power everything from household appliances to industrial systems. Most rely on magnetic fields generated by electric current to create rotation. While electrostatic...
Powering Drones From the Ground—While They Fly
Drone operations are often limited by one key factor: endurance. Even advanced platforms must return to base for recharging or battery replacement, creating gaps...
When GPS Fails, This System Keeps Everything Running
Modern military systems rely heavily on satellite navigation and timing, but these signals are increasingly vulnerable. In contested environments, electronic warfare can disrupt or...
The Shape-Shifting Robot That Repairs Itself Mid-Task
Soft robots are often designed for a single task. Once their structure and internal wiring are set, their range of motion is fixed, limiting...
Seeing 450 Km Ahead: A New Radar Takes Shape
The rapid growth of aerial threats, from long-range aircraft to small, low-flying drones, has exposed limitations in traditional radar systems. Detecting objects at extended...
A Cruise Missile Fired From the Ground — and Retargeted Mid-Flight
Modern military operations increasingly rely on long-range precision fires, but many of these capabilities have traditionally depended on ships or aircraft. In heavily contested...
Smaller, Smarter, and Unmanned: A New Naval Shift
Maritime operations are becoming increasingly complex, with growing demand for persistent surveillance, extended reach, and reduced risk to personnel. Traditional submarines can provide these...
What If AI Can’t Be Fully Controlled?
As artificial intelligence systems become more capable, ensuring they behave as intended is becoming a central challenge. Traditional approaches focus on strict alignment, meaning...
Dropping Armor From the Sky: A New Airborne Capability
Airborne forces are designed for rapid deployment, but they often face a critical limitation once on the ground: lack of immediate heavy support. While...
