There will also be Government briefings from U.S. Army Pacific (USARPAC) and OUSD R&E to provide insight into operational challenges and potential pathways for collaboration.
The “Enhanced Situational Awareness” Solutions Meeting will focus on innovative approaches for making sense of an increasingly complex battlespace. Technologies spotlighted during the Solutions Meeting will leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) and other advanced techniques for automating object recognition and change detection within an area of interest, along with solutions that expedite the processing and dissemination of an ever-increasing amount of incoming information.
The overall classification of the event is UNCLASSIFIED.
