Deep Vision has been selected to participate in Phase 1 of the Defence and Security Accelerator's (DASA) Autonomy in a Challenging Environment project, under the UK Ministry of Defence. This phase of the project is valued at $3.7 million.
Project manager Helen Mullender said:
"The work being funded is to mature autonomous systems with the capability to operate on demand, under all conditions that may be encountered. Military operations are undertaken in all kinds of challenging environment. The inclusion of autonomous systems in these operations will demand their ability to operate effectively and efficiently regardless of the environment."
DASA delivery manager Laurence Bickerton said:
"DASA is pleased to be working with DSTL and some of the best and brightest minds in industry to provide a step change in the capability of unmanned autonomous military systems."
