Near Earth Autonomy

“This is a meaningful milestone on our path towards fully capable autonomous traffic avoidance,” said Paul Bartlett, Near Earth Autonomy head of systems engineering.?“The realistic flight tests with the prototype accreditable autonomy architecture would not have been possible without Eglin...The test was successful as the eight-foot Griff 135 identified the presence and location of the TRV-150 and performed avoidance maneuvers over two successive flights...“Testing these capabilities quickly and effectively is critical to moving the United States Air Force forward,” said Lt. Col. Robert Waller, 96th Operations Group deputy commander.?? https://lnkd.in/dDV8_h5D?

“Our collaboration focuses on integrating proven aircraft, autonomy, and medical technologies to meet urgent battlefield needs. We plan to develop, test, and demonstrate the system over the next 12 months. LIFT’s HEXA and Near Earth’s autonomy systems have a strong synergistic fit.?We believe that our approach of combining existing, proven systems is the most efficient way to rapidly revolutionize battlefield medical support while minimizing costs and delays. The sooner we demonstrate the system’s effectiveness and reliability, the sooner it can potentially be out in the field, saving lives.” - Sanjiv Singh, CEO of Near Earth Autonomy https://lnkd.in/eHF5EvKP

"LIFT Aircraft announced this week that the company has been awarded a contract by the Army Applications Laboratory (AAL) to design a medical multi-mission modular payload container that can carry blood supply and casualty evacuations (CASEVAC). LIFT is collaborating with Near Earth Autonomy to help one of the US Army’s biggest challenges — the need to autonomously perform these functions within the crucial golden hour — the critical period immediately following trauma when rapid medical intervention significantly increases survival rates." Sanjiv Singh, CEO of Near Earth Autonomy, remarked, “Our partnership focuses on integrating proven aircraft, autonomy and medical technologies to meet urgent battlefield needs....We believe that our approach of combining existing, proven systems is the most efficient way to rapidly revolutionize battlefield medical support while minimizing costs and delays.

"Near Earth Autonomy, based in Pittsburgh, has played a pioneering role adapting vertical lift aircraft—small and large alike—for autonomous operations. CEO and Co-Founder Sanjiv Singh, Ph.D., discussed what it means to be an autonomy integrator, his approach toward deterministic and non-deterministic forms of autonomy, the future of autonomous vertical-lift logistics in the Army and Marine Corps, and work with the Air Force on autonomy certification and aircraft inspection.” Read Sebastien Roblin's insightful Inside Unmanned Systems article covering Near Earth's past, present, and future! https://lnkd.in/e3K9UkT6

"Autonomous mobility provider Near Earth Autonomy won a spot leading one of the teams assembled by the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) to demonstrate optimized logistics using rotorcraft for the United States Marine Corps (USMC)?Aerial?Logistics Connector (ALC) program. Together with additional collaborators?Leonardo Helicopters and Honeywell,?Near Earth reports that it will showcase advanced autonomy on the Leonardo AW139 helicopter to provide logistical?support during expeditionary operations in contested environments. The AW139 -- known for its utility for defense, medical rescue, law enforcement, and energy operations worldwide -- will use?Near Earth’s logistics mission autonomy system during the project." - Military Embedded Systems https://lnkd.in/etbZBgKi
