In an increasingly connected world of autonomous vehicles and edge devices, armed forces around the world are seeking to improve the coordination and performance of complex systems. To this end, the U.S. Air Force has signed a contract with tech contractor Qylur Intelligent Systems to explore how AI can be used in “Collaborative Autonomous Systems,” specifically, helping maintain data integrity and the performance of groups of autonomous vehicles over time.
The Small Business Innovation Research contract will fund research and development into Qylur’s “Social Network of Intelligent Machines (SNIM)” AI — “a patented, core technology for ongoing management of autonomous intelligent devices and for maintaining the long-term superiority of their AI performance,” according to Qylur’s news release. But the company is aiming for commercial applications as well.
“This is a core technology that we’re putting inside our own systems,” said Qylur CEO Lisa Dolev in a phone call with VentureBeat.
