Sandia Researchers See Success in Miniaturizing Wireless Technology

Acoustic amplifier opens the door to smaller radio technologies.

Matt Eichenfield (l) and Lisa Hackett, scientists at Sandia National Labs, recently created a groundbreaking acoustic circulator, a key radio component that separates transmitted and received signals, and is much smaller in size. Credit: Sandia National Labs/Bret Latter

Signed JADC2 Strategy Provides 'Teeth' to Complicated Effort

The approval outlines two key forums for deciding which service will supply solutions for joint all-domain operations.

The new strategy for Joint All-Domain Command and Control will bring together the “disparate communities within DoD to work together for a common cause,” says Lt. Gen. Dennis Crall, USMC, director, Command, Control, Communications and Computers/Cyber; and chief information officer, The Joint Staff (J-6), on Friday during a press conference at the Pentagon.

Sponsored Content: Building a Data-centric DoD Starts with Search

The Defense Department (DoD) is continuing to build out a truly data-centric approach based on the DoD Data Strategy, presenting new opportunities for transforming the way data is collected, analyzed and leveraged.

Innovation Drives Naval Integration

Speeding new systems into the service dominates modernization efforts.

The USS John Finn launches a missile during the U.S. Pacific Fleet’s Unmanned Systems Integrated Battle Problem 21 in April. Integrating unmanned systems into the fleet is one of the challenges facing the Navy as it modernizes to meet growing adversarial threats. U.S. Navy photo

Augmented Reality Supports Space Advances

A digital platform aids in spacecraft development and work in orbit.

The ProtoSpace augmented reality system takes collaboration to a higher level, allowing scientists at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory to more easily see and discuss spacecraft design considerations, such as for the Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, Topography and Spectroscopy spacecraft.

Army Catches RIDE to Extended Reality Future

A new tool is used to develop the Tactical Computing Environment.

The University of Southern California’s Institute for Creative Technologies has developed a test bed for evaluating a wide array of virtual reality, augmented reality, extended reality and artificial intelligence systems used for military purposes. Metamorworks/Shutterstock

Researchers Adopt a New Perspective on Extended Reality

Graphics are giving way to a triumph of substance over style.

A researcher (inset) uses extended reality (XR) with digital overlays to determine how a fire spreads in a room. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) experiments with XR to evaluate materials for fire-resistant characteristics without putting humans at risk. NIST

Flying Right Into Open Architecture

The Navy’s acquisition strategy aims at open architectures in aviation programs.

In its pursuit of open architecture solutions, the U.S. Navy has made “great strides” in applying the Mission Computer Alternative (MCA) platform, which is a Hardware Open Systems Technologies- (HOST-) conforming mission computer. The service is currently testing the MCA/HOST platform in its E-2D Advanced Hawkeye tactical airborne early warning aircraft and in its T-45 training aircraft (above)—and is considering how to advance the solutions to other platforms.

Cyber Institute Probes All Dimensions of Extended Reality

Researchers study the pros and cons of the virtual world.

Using virtual reality, soldiers from Fort Sill, Oklahoma, get a look at components of the Army’s new prototype Long Range Hypersonic Weapon and a chance to influence how the system is designed. In the future, units may use 3D printers to build their own virtual reality headsets. U.S. Army
