Transcript
IDEaS has been finding and shaping concepts and technology that fit the CAF’s needs for five years now.
We are just now seeing the fruition of hard work, funding and expertise that has culminated in 20 potential candidates for DND/CAF to “Test Drive” their technology.
Test Drives are the final stage in the IDEaS continuum. Which means that they are close to being ready for use.
Currently, there are several test drives in progress or completed.
A Test Drive of a cyber-protection platform has been completed. It was developed by Sapper Labs, and is capable of identifying the perpetrators of sophisticated cyber threats.
A second Test Drive is being conducted with Ecopia, which will use artificial intelligence and mapping technology to detect and classify objects of interest.
And finally, Terra Sense Analytics will be looking at better ways to monitor and interpret Full Motion Video.
The Green Heat test drive is testing a low carbon energy generation system to heat existing DND/CAF buildings.
On top of this, IDEaS will be hosting its third Countering Uncrewed Aerial Systems sandbox in the spring of 2024.
These demonstration events help to refine ongoing technology to detect and defeat drones, as well as bring new technologies forward.
To stay ahead of the curve, we are funding research clusters to find novel defence applications to emerging technologies such as 5G and quantum computing, sensing and communications.
And that’s on top of the research recently completed on advanced materials and autonomous systems, which are being featured today.
