Autonomous systems
We’ve designed and built world-class autonomous systems for our partners, including fully autonomous ground vehicles and UAVs.
Robotics and haptics
Our haptically-enabled robots allow law enforcement agencies, militaries and mining companies to explore places otherwise unreachable.
Cybersecurity
We have expertise in protective security and information warfare, cyber analytics, AI and forensics and incident management.
Battery storage and management
Advanced electrolytes research program for defence battery technology development, supported by machine learning expertise to profile battery usage and estimate state of charge.
Artificial intelligence
Our capabilities extend to deep learning, machine learning, deep uncertainty quantification, computer vision, data analytics and applied robotics.
Defence education
We currently partner with the Australian War College to provide education and professional development of senior Australian military officers, public servants and regional partners.
Advanced materials
We’ve developed ground-breaking materials that protect our defence forces in the harshest of environments.
Health, wellbeing, and performance
Our capabilities and expertise include both in-field and laboratory measures for physiological and psychological responses in different defence and security scenarios.
