Rapid Prototyping of Autonomous or Semi-Autonomous Systems for Human-Machine Combat Teaming Focus Area

Abstract

This focus area addresses the need to develop new operational capabilities; speed up the observe, orient, decide, and act (OODA) loop; and, enhance situational awareness through the teaming of humans with autonomous or semi-autonomous robotic or software-enabled systems. Related capabilities that enable autonomy are multiplying due to sensors that can understand the environment and software algorithms that can make a decision or seek human assistance. The focus area is aimed at rapidly developing prototype technologies and demonstrations of systems to: semi-autonomously detect, identify, track, prioritize, and engage targets with operator determination; and, autonomously detect and classify threats then recommend defensive or offensive actions to the operator.
