Advanced Autonomous Systems Technologies Focus Area

Abstract

This focus area explores advances in autonomy platforms to enable more effective human-machine teaming and collaboration, use of autonomous systems in complex urban environments, and low-cost, scalable autonomous assets to defeat threats. Prototype technologies will advance capabilities such as scalable autonomous behavior, collaborative actions between autonomous systems, human-above-the-loop control, and hardware for next-generation autonomous systems. Specific activities include autonomy algorithm development, modeling and design, and experimentation and evaluation of autonomy platforms. These prototype capabilities will reduce technical and integration risk and provide joint, cross-cutting value to the warfighter. A cross functional team, led by the OUSD(R&E), will review and select prototyping proposals from across the Department of Defense in the year of execution.
