Awarion® AI maritime technology enhances naval escort safety in crowded harbor environments

Small vessel with Awarion on board sensing an approaching fishing vessel and a smaller boat as a threat.

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
