Research abstract

With threats pulling the US in multiple directions, it is apparent the future of modern warfare requires an adaptable and agile force with an expansive platform of proactive toolsùready to respond at a moment's notice. To modernize military forces, ensuring a proactive, responsive solution that allows forces to disseminate alerts or even sensitive information safely within a contested battlespace is crucial. Specifically, the ability to deploy technology that can integrate with any sensor would not only strengthen current operations, but increase the reach of military forces and maintain steps ahead of the enemy. ZE Government Solutions (ZEGS) powered by ZeroEyes proposes leveraging its proven, commercially available TRL 9 core data model generation methodology for defense mission-sets, particularly for force protection. Utilizing the ZeroEyes patented method for developing complex models, a variety of data-sets for threats to force could be built quickly and accurately in replicated environments difficult to access for data testing. Using a Hollywood-quality green screen lab, our technique can revolutionize model creation to provide a portfolio for threats such as people, vehicles, weapons, small watercraft, large military vessels, TACSAMs, anomalies, obfuscated objects, etc. This model generation technique would enhance surveillance mechanisms (cameras, drones, etc.) with myriad capabilities to detect and take action on those threats before an adversary engages.
