Palladyne AI Executes $4.2 Million U.S. Air Force Contract to Advance Swarming Capabilities for Integrated Cross-Domain Operations
Palladyne AI’s SwarmOS™ platform to support satellite integration, marking a major expansion of its multi-domain autonomy and ISR capabilities across space, air, maritime, and land
Palladyne AI Corp. (NASDAQ: PDYN and PDYNW) (“Palladyne AI”), a developer of artificial intelligence software for robotic platforms in the defense and commercial sectors, today announced that it has executed the previously announced contract awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to solve one of the most persistent challenges in modern defense operations—how to make different autonomous systems work together as one coordinated team. The “Hierarchical Adaptive Networked Game-Theoretic Integration of Multiple Echelons (HANGTIME)” contract will address this need.
Today, drones, ships, and satellites often operate largely independently, limiting how quickly warfighters can see and respond to threats. HANGTIME will utilize Palladyne AI’s patented SwarmOS™ software platform—the defense variant of the Palladyne™ Pilot embodied AI software—as the baseline technology to bridge that gap, connecting disparate systems so they can share intelligence, adapt to changing conditions, and act in sync across domains, including space, air, maritime, and land.
