DMO through IAS
Abstract
The Distributed Maritime Operations though Intelligent Autonomous Systems (DMO-IAS) effort will demonstrate IAS teams that can maneuver and close sea denial detect through engage/ assess kill-chains over tactically relevant ranges and extended mission durations, that maintain survivability through avoidance of detection, and that do not rely on vulnerable command and control systems. It will explore novel sensing, autonomy, and communications approaches that can be applied to other Navy IAS programs that enable robust, resilient IAS kill-chains. The efforts described in this Project address the Applied Research associated with concept of a "Seedling". These "Seedling" efforts are short duration applied research efforts to explore technology concepts which have the potential to provide revolutionary and/or disruptive warfighting capability. As a "Seedling" concept matures, a determination is made whether or not a continuing INP effort is warranted or appropriate. "Seedlings" are typically one to two year efforts and use applied research to analyze the feasibility of technology and subsystems to assess if the technologies can be proposed as an INP. They will research lower TRL technologies to explore technology concepts and lay preliminary groundwork for an INP proposal to continue technology development and full-scale technology/operational demonstrations. The Activity identified in this Project Unit specifically addresses Applied Research in support of the DMO through IAS INP effort.
