DARPA awards Charles River Analytics $4.2M to advance cybersecurity through compartmentalization
Charles River Analytics was awarded a contract for up to $4.2 million from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to create compartmentalization architecture to enhance cybersecurity. This effort supports DARPA’s Compartmentalization and Privilege Management (CPM) program focusing on a new approach to cyber resilience. Traditional cybersecurity focuses on perimeter defenses designed to stop external threats from entering […]
Awarion® AI maritime technology enhances naval escort safety in crowded harbor environments
To ensure safe passage, high-value assets such as Navy aircraft carriers require escorts when entering or exiting crowded harbors. The Perception Autonomy for Vessel Escorts (PAVE) system from Charles River Analytics automates the process to reduce the number of people required and increase the speed for each mission. This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase […]
Real-time data for real-time feedback: Charles River and ASU awarded funding to support DARPA’s OP TEMPO program, which aims to enhance team training effectiveness
An individual’s preparedness for a task need not always translate into productivity as a member of a team. To understand how the two are related and to develop reliable and objective predictors of team performance, Charles River Analytics is working on a Bio-Behavioral Team Dynamics Measurement System (BioTDMS). The effort is being led by Arizona […]
Charles River Analytics awarded up to $3.2M by ARPA-H to strengthen usability and utility of biomedical data tools
A collection of tools is of little value unless all users can access it seamlessly in workflows. This is especially true in the rapidly evolving biomedical research sector with its vast array of new data and groundbreaking technologies. Charles River Analytics is working with the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), an agency within […]
DARPA awards $4.5M to Charles River Analytics to develop AI-powered prediction technology for critical minerals supply chain
DARPA awarded Charles River Analytics a contract totaling $4.5M to create a large-scale probabilistic model of supply and demand, which aims to increase transparency for the global critical minerals market. Critical minerals, or minerals that are essential for economic and national security but have vulnerable supply chains, such as nickel, cobalt, and lithium, are essential […]
Innovative video game and robot system, funded by NIH, enhances pediatric physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy
Charles River Analytics completed Phase I of a contract from the National Institute of Health (NIH) to create an active video game and robot system for children undergoing rehabilitative physical therapy. The system is designed to provide companionship and engagement to help children with cerebral palsy (CP) or similar neurological conditions improve their adherence to […]
Navy awards Charles River Analytics $1M to boost submarine detection capabilities with AI/ML technologies
Given the rise of stealthier and quieter submarines, current detection tools, which primarily focus on acoustic measurements, need an upgrade. Charles River Analytics won a nearly $1 million Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract from the US Navy to develop an alternative system to detect submarines effectively using their magnetic signals. The Magnetometer-based ASW […]
