On April 17, Tiami Networks and Thales Defense & Security, Inc. (TDSI) announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to commence a strategic partnership. This collaboration marks a major step forward in the future of 5G-integrated sensing and defense technology.
By combining Tiami’s PolyEdge Multifunction Sensor software, which uses AI to passively sense and interpret the wireless environment, with TDSI’s deep expertise in tactical networking, radar, and mission-critical defense systems, the two companies aim to co-develop next-generation situational awareness capabilities. These joint solutions will target a range of applications across U.S. Department of Defense programs, government operations, and commercial markets where secure, real-time sensing and decision-making are paramount.
“This partnership with TDSI represents a powerful alignment of our advanced sensing capabilities with their world-class defense systems,” said Amitav Mukherjee, CEO of Tiami Networks. “Together, we’re shaping the future of multi-domain awareness by fusing FutureG RF sensing with robust, field-proven communications technologies.”
Through this relationship, the companies will explore integration pathways between Tiami’s edge-AI and 5G/Wi-Fi-based sensing platform and Thales’ secure tactical communications architecture. Potential use cases include force protection, perimeter security, airspace awareness, and urban surveillance – all leveraging ambient wireless signals for reduced signature and jamming-resistant sensing.
“TDSI is excited to work alongside Tiami Networks to explore and operationalize multifunction sensing capability that complements today’s defense systems,” stated Paul Mehney, vice president of strategy, Thales Defense adn Security, Inc. “Partnerships with tech firms such as Tiami Networks allows for rapid and agile innovation in the defense sector.”
