A new neural network model reveals some of the mystery behind the decision-making capability of artificial intelligence systems.
Haystack Ultrawideband Satellite Imaging Radar at night
space situational awareness
Lincoln Laboratory created the world's highest-resolution radar for imaging of space objects in support of space situational awareness.
The ASIC system on chip was fabricated using industry processes and best practices. This image shows the chip during the packaging process.
embedded computing
A power-efficient application-specific integrated circuit system on chip that performs up to 2 trillion computations per second has potential for use in mobile communication systems.
The Laboratory's novel optical communication system was integrated on a robotic undersea vehicle.
optical systems
A system that enables robust, long-distance communications between underwater vehicles exploits laser technology.
A goal of the program is to develop a system that can identify spatial relationships between objects in a scene, such as counting how many planes are parked at the terminal on the left.
information, computation, & exploitation
An artificial intelligence application that automatically identifies objects in aerial imagery could reduce the time analysts spend in manually combing through images.
For installation aboard a launch vehicle, a space telescope using technology developed for DISCIT will fold up into the compact shape seen at the left, but will expand its segmented sparse subapertures, right, once deployed.
integrated systems
Technologies enabling the deployment of an expandable telescope from a small spacecraft could pave the way for the development of other payloads for small satellites.
The MASIVS sensor uses four focal planes.
surveillance
An airborne system provides high-resolution wide-area video imagery and onboard data processing to enable real-time monitoring of suspicious human activity.
