New Flight Planning Tech Helps Drones Race Through Complex Terrain
Autonomous drones can move quickly in open air, but cluttered environments are much harder. Buildings, trees, narrow passages and other obstacles leave little room...
This Software Turns Individual Drones Into a Coordinated Swarm
As armed forces deploy growing numbers of unmanned aircraft, managing them efficiently is becoming as important as the drones themselves. Controlling each aircraft individually...
One Software Platform Could Control Drones and Ground Robots Together
As organizations deploy more robots, a new problem emerges: each machine can come with its own controls, software and mission-planning tools. An operator working...
This Tiny Boat Could Patrol Waters Without Putting Anyone Onboard
Monitoring large stretches of ocean creates a difficult resource problem for military and security forces. Ports, shipping lanes and strategic waterways may require continuous...
False AI Intelligence Exposes a New Risk for Military Decision-Making
Artificial intelligence can process large amounts of intelligence quickly, but that speed creates a serious problem when an incorrect conclusion looks convincing enough to...
This Tiny Robot Can Keep Jumping as Long as the Light...
Small robots designed to cross rough terrain face a basic mechanical challenge: jumping usually requires a mechanism to store energy, release it and then...
This Autonomous Aircraft Can Carry 10 Missiles Without a Pilot
Attack helicopters are facing a growing challenge on today's battlefield. The widespread use of inexpensive drones, loitering munitions and persistent aerial surveillance has made...
This Tiny Cyber Probe Can Tell When a Device Has Been...
Protecting critical systems becomes especially difficult once an attacker gets inside the device itself. Conventional cybersecurity tools can monitor network traffic, identify known vulnerabilities...
A Missile No Heavier Than a Laptop Takes Aim at Drone...
The rapid spread of military drones has created a growing problem for air-defense forces. Many attack drones are inexpensive to produce, yet they are...
This One-Wheel Robot Could Replace Routine Security Patrols
Protecting large industrial sites, airports, campuses and critical infrastructure often requires continuous patrols over wide areas. Autonomous security robots are increasingly being used to...
Autonomous Robot Boat Combines Surface and Aerial Surveillance
Maritime surveillance often requires both surface vessels and aerial drones to maintain awareness over large areas. While drones provide a much wider field of...
Quantum Timing Could Keep Air Defenses Running Without GPS
Modern air-defense networks increasingly rely on multiple radars spread across different locations. Combining their observations can create a more accurate picture of aircraft, missiles...
