Dual Tech Taxonomy 1.0
Autonomous Systems
Autonomous Systems (AS02)
Autonomous Systems integrate robotics, AI, and sensor fusion to operate vehicles or devices with minimal human oversight. From self-driving cars and warehouse robots in commercial sectors to unmanned aerial or ground vehicles in defense contexts, these systems reduce labor intensity, enhance precision, and improve safety. By coordinating fleets or intelligent drones, autonomous solutions streamline logistics, surveying, or search-and-rescue tasks. Both businesses and militaries capitalize on autonomy to mitigate human risk in hazardous missions, expand operational reach, and adapt swiftly to changing conditions.
Automated Data Fusion (AD12)
Automated Data Fusion (AD12) focuses on merging and interpreting multiple data streams—sensors, logs, and media—for unified insights. By aligning formats, detecting anomalies, and visually overlaying metrics, these solutions guide both commercial analytics and defense intelligence toward swifter, more informed decisions.
Information & Analytics
Operation Control Middleware (OM22)
Operations Control Middleware (OM22) orchestrates data flows, system events, and software deployments across varied infrastructures. By automating version control, balancing loads, and offering real-time monitoring, these solutions help commercial businesses and defense tech teams ensure smoother, more resilient operations.
Data & Analytics
Space Robotic Systems (SR32)
Space Robotic Systems (SR32) harness autonomous platforms for in-orbit servicing, assembly, and exploration. By reducing human risk and expanding operational flexibility, these robot-driven solutions cater to commercial satellites and deep-space ventures, as well as defense missions in contested or remote orbital environments.
Space
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UA42)
Unmanned Aerial Systems (UA42) leverage drones for diverse tasks—cargo transport, inspection, rescue, or surveillance. By combining sensors, autonomy, and efficient flight design, these solutions help industries optimize overhead processes while offering defense forces enhanced reconnaissance and operational reach.
Air
Unmanned Ground Systems (UG52)
Unmanned Ground Systems (UG52) bring automation to land-based transport, inspection, and specialized tasks. By handling everything from hazardous material cleanup to warehouse logistics, these ground robots support commercial operations with efficiency and safety, while offering defense units enhanced mobility and resilience under challenging conditions.
Land
Unmanned Surface / Subsurface (UM62)
Unmanned Surface / Subsurface (UM62) technologies automate maritime tasks—from ocean surveying to port security—by deploying aquatic drones or robotic submersibles. Whether it’s ensuring cargo route safety in commercial shipping or supplementing naval operations undersea, these systems expand possibilities for exploration, defense, and resource management.
