Research abstract

Vision Systems Inc. (VSI) with support from STR propose Virtual Sea-Shield (VSS), a multi-modal deep-sensing capability to navigate through and probe a denied environment. VSS will provide a spatiotemporal mapping and deep-sensing framework to integrate and fuse multimodal datasets such as IMINT and HMD MOVINT. Utilizing Generative AI to provide context-relevant 3D meshes and textures for a virtual world, VSS will further produce a virtual reality (VR) environment that facilitates novel virtual collaborative teaming configurations and integrates MOVINT patterns of life. Our test and evaluation approach exploits operationally realistic scenarios from within a denied environment and leverages our teamís experience with AI agent development for these environments.
