Intelligent Weapons Concepts and Technologies
Abstract
This Project focuses on far-term, overarching lethality technologies by investigating techniques for Soldiers to guide the in-field adaptation of intelligent small arms technologies to respond to changing mission requirements, novel environments, and adversarial actions. Research areas include cognition-centric displays to ensure Soldiers maintain appropriate situational awareness in augmented reality (AR) environments, opportunistic shooter sensing, and interactive machine learning techniques to ensure small arms technologies can adapt to changing situations quickly and with reduced data requirements as compared to non-human guided machine learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The results of this Project will enhance operational performance of individuals and teams of Soldiers in the future operational environment through novel weapon and human-agent interaction technologies. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC).
