Research abstract

STEER Tech proposes modifying our EXISTING and SUCCESSFUL patent pending technology into the Air Force Logistics Readiness Squadron fleets of military vehicles to implement autonomous logistics operations. We are ready to bring to the military what we’ve already delivered commercially to airports, transit agencies, and retail companies, with customers including Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, the Maryland Transit Authority, and a global retail sales and distribution e-commerce platform who will be utilizing thousands of our products this year. The Air Force has a vital and urgent need to improve operational efficiency and effectiveness.  STEER’s technology is poised to significantly improve the United States’ edge against China and other bad actors, and to protect our most valuable asset, our Airmen.
