SURFACE SHIP & SUBMARINE HULL MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL (HM&E)
Abstract
This project addresses advanced technology development associated with providing the capability of Platform and Force Protection for the U.S. Navy. This project supports the development of technologies associated with various naval platforms (surface, subsurface and terrestrial) and the protection of those platforms. The primary research efforts within this activity are focused on advanced technology development for Unmanned Sea Surface Vehicles in support of Naval S&T Focus Area on Autonomy and Unmanned Vehicles and At-Sea Vertical Launch System rearming. Unmanned Sea Surface Vehicle (USSV) technology development includes autonomous navigation for USSVs. Also funded in this activity is the Energy System Technology Evaluation Program (ESTEP), which promotes innovation and entrepreneurial opportunities for naval personnel and student veterans through advanced technology development and demonstration projects at naval facilities and laboratories. Program goals include: advance dual-use and naval-unique technologies that increase operational capabilities and efficiencies; leverage commercial technologies and private investments to provide warfighter capability at reduced cost; and evaluate innovative technologies from naval laboratories and startup companies.
