Description
Global persistent awareness is critical for the Air Force. Warfare is becoming increasingly complex due to congested and contested operational environments, maneuvering targets, and rapidly changing threats. The Air Force seeks on-demand awareness of adversary actions anywhere on the globe by securely gathering, processing, and fusing multiple types of trusted data, including satellite and aerial imagery. The Joint and Allied Force networks will share processed intelligence to rapidly identify threats and targeted intelligence. Executing AI algorithms for satellite and aerial imagery fusion solely on terrestrial cloud infrastructure will incur severe latency due to limited data rate between a satellite and ground station, wireless link packet losses, delays due to revisit times, etc. Therefore, we propose to extend our commercial distributed edge AI sensor fusion software stack to satisfy the needs of Air Force customers. A 1000X latency reduction and 5X improvement in intelligence inference accuracy will be demonstrated.
