4. Autonomous Launch & Recovery System Demonstrated
Kraken Robotics Inc. has completed demonstrations for its new Autonomous Launch and Recovery System (ALARS) for the KATFISH™ towed synthetic aperture sonar (SAS).
The new ALARS was built to fit a 20-foot International Organization for Standardization (ISO) container footprint to increase interoperability with different vessels, allowing for rapid mobilization and demobilization on multi-role platforms. The system enables autonomous launch and recovery of KATFISH up to Sea State 5.
5. New Targeting System for GPS-Denied Settings Demonstrated to U.S. Army
Trillium Engineering has successfully showcased its GD-Loc technology, a new targeting solution for GPS-denied environments, to the U.S. Army. Using the HD55 gimbal and Clarity-HD technology, integrated with a commercial drone, the GD-Loc system consistently achieved a target location error of less than six meters, demonstrating high-performance in challenging conditions.
The demonstration highlighted the GD-Loc’s ability to achieve a high target location accuracy in both daytime and nighttime scenarios, underlining its potential to enhance mission-critical operations for warfighters in areas with limited or compromised GPS functionality.
