Analytic Threat Observation, Materialistic Identification, Classification, and Attribution (ATOMICA)
Abstract
Previously funded JCTD. ATOMICA supports the National Defense Strategy's focus on providing non-intrusive, real time identification of threats to support the Joint Force’s secure maneuverability through both land and sea. ATOMICA provides a portable, self-contained sensor system that will provide an unprecedented ability to materialistically determine the contents of an unknown object. The sensor will interrogate objects with a short standoff distance without touching, opening, or disturbing the targeted object. The ATOMICA sensor will be integrated onto various unmanned platforms, to include unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) and unmanned, remotely operated vehicles (ROV) for both terrestrial and underwater environments. In FY 2021, the ATOMICA JCTD began developing a ruggedized developmental prototype and completed an initial technical demonstration in a controlled environment.
